Why Did You Leave the Horse Alone? By Mahmoud Darwish 

The poets know. I treasured this book of poems. My favorites are

And First Exercises on a Spanish Guitar
Successions for Another Time 

The translation is excellent. I imagine poetry is difficult to translate, to keep meaning and rhythm.

This is my 17th book for #23for23
