Often crafted from the writer's despair, the poems within express suffering and loneliness, as well as lessons learned. Poetry is an outlet of human emotions and trials. Driven by a need to speak to someone who is not made of flesh and blood, poet Sedki Chaabani uses a language of inflictions and despondency... a language of unexpectedness and occult discoveries. Language, be it English or Chaabani's native Arabic, is the expression of all. Within both, he becomes like Sinbad in his jeopardizing travels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA poet, playwright, essayist, and novelist, Sedki Chaabani has previously published a collection of novellas and two novels in Arabic in Tunisia. Currently, he is preparing for the release of a play, \"Paradise...O Paradise!\" and a new novel, \u003cem\u003eTaghriba, an Exile's Epic\u003c\/em\u003e. Chaabani taught for years in the U.A.E. and during that time wrote a portion of these poems. He has been a citizen of Canada since 2015. He has said he writes when he suffers--be it great sorrow or great passion. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dorrance Publishing Co.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/08\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781646102211\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 82\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.17d","brand":"Sedki Chaabani","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52491372560565,"sku":"9781646102211","price":9.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_ec3c42f1-0fb5-45d8-ad4d-b0b5a47dce98.jpg?v=1777995988","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-chants-of-adulthood-collection-of-poems-9781646102211","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
