- Summary:
- "'Let Me Tell You What I Saw' is the first ever publication as a dual-language (English / Arabic) text of substantial extracts from Adnan Al-Sayegh's ground-breaking epic poem, 'Uruk's Anthem', one of the longest poems ever written in Arabic literature, which gives voice to the profound despair of the Iraqi experience. This superb translation brings the eloquent original Arabic epic to a new readership."--taken from back cover.
