This book explores poetry by Sherko Bekas, a Kurdish writer and
Swedish Tucholsky award winner, providing contextualising biography
(with original new information from an interview with his son) and
critical stylistic analyses of two selected poems. The
authors also include a section on the Kurdish language and
translation of the poems into English. There are very few English
translations of some of Bekas' poems and no book so far on the
stylistic or even linguistic analysis of his work, with the result
that Bekas is not widely known in the "Western" world. This book
aims to fill this lacuna in the literary and linguistic canon, and
it will be of interest to students and scholars of Translation,
Stylistics, Middle Eastern History and Literature.Â
