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

hopeful reflective sad

Poetry is hard for me to sit with, especially when the poetry is focuses on something as raw and horrific as the death and hardship in Gaza (made worse when you take into perspective how these poems were written years ago and pale in comparison to the genocide happening right now). However, the simplicity of Abu Toha's writing, paired with the photographs and the interview at the end make this very accessible collection and something I'm very glad I picked up.
