This author has the dissertation and willingness to write the journey of his life and share it with the world like no other. This is not for a specific audience. This book is for everyone who lives among the living and laments for the departed and expediates all the branches of a real love story which permeates within us all. . I will give one small insight for the reader. Damascus is were Able and Cain from the Bible lived, walked and were finally lamented. This book draws the breath of God from the first old city Damascus which we were all born from his dust to his glory and loved forever. Michael
Reviews:
Truly heartfelt poetry centered around three powerful themes of love, death, and life. Written from the perspective of a Syrian American who grew up in Damascus, this book provides an insightful look into the life and culture of that time period. Syria, a country that has been riddled with violence and corruption in recent years, has an entire story waiting to be told by the first hand experiences of Tarif as he grows from a young adult into a man with as much wisdom as compassion. A must read book for anyone interested in Middle Eastern society.
Hearts, Tears, & the Journey of Life is a compilation of poems that seem to be written on the spur of a moment after an event, such as the death of a family member or friend, provoked the author to remember and register. It is also about love and memory in their abstract form. The poetry is lighthearted, spontaneous and at times funny, registering moments of survival, happiness, loneliness and nostalgia.
