\u201cEl Ghourabaa<\/em> (Metonymy), a collection of delightfully experimental works edited by Montreal-based writers Samia Marshy and Eli Tareq El Bechelany-Lynch, is a vital new entry to the field of Arab diaspora literature…The collection’s sheer diversity in both subject matter and form makes every part stand out: from a reflective except by the renowned late queer elder Etel Adnan, to a staccato panic-filled poem by self-described ‘punk poet-performer cyborg’ Andrea Abi-Karam.\u201d
\n\u2014Olivia Shan, Maisonneuve<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cFrom navigating the locker room in a trans body, to lessons on remembering and on making love, to tender and heartbreaking childhood memories, the anthology is all at once wholesome, delicious, dark, and unpredictable…A bold and thoughtfully curated anthology, El Ghourabaa<\/em>\u00a0is prolific and piercing in its beauty and stays true to El Bechelany-Lynch and Marshy\u2019s queer, trans, anti-colonial, anti-imperial, anti-Zionist vision. A book born of love and necessity, it is an unforgiving and compassionate offering during times of heightened global violence.\u201d
