Palestinian Poetry

While the choice of an Israeli poet to present here was very obvious to me I had a much harder time picking the poet and the poems when it came to the Palestinian part. First because it was new to me and also because as stated before its political inclination. So instead of one poet I chose few and made an effort to locate poems that I felt reflected a possibility of a dialogue. 

A lot of the information came from two source;

  - Amichai to Darwish: Palestinian and Israeli writers on conflict ,

http://www.theguardian.com/books/2009/jan/09/poetry-gaza

 - The Dialogue of Poetry: Palestinian mid Israeli Poets Writing Through Conflict and Peace

http://www.pij.org/index.php

  The poems presents then are only a small, rather random representation.
