Things You May Find Hidden in My Ear: Poems from Gaza by Mosab Abu Toha

emotional informative reflective medium-paced

4.75

 hings You May Find Hidden in My Ear could be described as eye-opening - but only to anyone who has been living under a rock and somehow managed to avoid all of the images coming out of Gaza in the past couple of months. What it is is heart-wrenching and powerful, an indication of how conflict and violence in the region have impacted the poet, first as a child, then a young man, and later as a father. What should be unimaginable was his everyday reality before he was able to leave. Highly recommended - for both the poetry and the political context.
