Chronicles of Majnun Layla and Selected Poems

Brings together in one volume Haddad's seminal work and a considerable selection of poems from his oeuvre, stretching over forty years. The selected poems reveal Haddad's playful yet profound meditations. A powerful lyric poet, Haddad juxtaposes classical and modern symbols, and mixes the old with the new, the sensual with the sacred, and the common with the extraordinary.
