He somehow managed to take a simple human thought or concept, and breathe life into it through his words in such a way that one cannot help but be instantly transported right into the midst of it. When you listen to Gibran’s poetry, you aren’t just listening to the words, you are listening to living breathing people; or at least it feels that way.

EL MEJOR ESCRITOR SEFARDÍ DE ISRAEL. Prof. Habiba Pdaya. Haaretz. Sept. 2020. "Una novela en castellano escrita por un autor sefardí siempre es algo original, pero en este caso, hay algo más. Mucho más: Amor y exilios es una novela escrita por un poeta y eso siempre se nota. Y no sólo en el modo de abordar los sentimientos, o la textura de las situaciones, o los matices humanos que van componiendo una trama de distancias que se amplían y se acercan.

השנה היא 1946. מלחמת העולם תמה וגיבורתנו, מרי אן, איבדה בה את הוריה. גם הדוד הנפלא מרסל נפטר, אך הספיק להטמיע בה אהבה בלתי מתפשרת לספרים. מרי אן מוצאת מחסה בכפר צרפתי קטן, שבו נהגה לבלות את הקיצים עם משפחתה. עליה להחלים מאובדנה ובמקביל משתקם גם הכפר מן הטראומות שהותירה בו המלחמה. עם שחרורה מבית החולים, תפקידה של מרי אן לבנות מחדש את ספריית הכפר, שנהרסה על ידי הגרמנים. מבין הדפים עולה רוח התקופה: צרפת הנתונה תחת כיבוש גרמני, ותהליך לידתה המורכב של מדינת ישראל, שמושכת אליה את מרי אן בעבותות של אהבה.

This sampling - or to use the Farsi term golchine, a bouquet - provides a window onto an important but sorely neglected segment of world culture. We hope it will also serve to awaken further interest in the work and in translations of Iranian novelists and poets.

In reading the fantastic tale of Prince Agib's adventures in the justly famous Arabian Nights, I was struck with how deeply insightful it was about the human condition. Although the story is so incredible that even one's imagination is stretched by its incredulity, the message it conveys is so universal and so human that one cannot help but be awed by its moral implications. Blaise Pascal brilliantly captures Prince Agib's and our own dilemma when he writes, “All men's miseries derive from not being able to sit in a quiet room alone.”
