Abstract:
The first Arabic-English full translation of Ashraf Fayadh's volume of poetry, Instructions Within, which was published by the Beirut-based Dar al-Farabi in 2008 and later banned from distribution in Saudi Arabia. This special edition includes two paintings by Ashraf Fayadh on its front and back covers, and is right bound, asking the reader to consider their estrangement from Arabic language, literature, and life, inviting a new relationship to begin to form.
