My Loneliness is a Garden: Selected Poems of Adonis (new Edition)

About This Novel
"My Loneliness is a Garden: Selected Poems of Adonis" is a selection and translation of seventeen collections of poems by the translator from the time when the poet entered the poetry world nearly fifty years ago. The poet Adonis is a rebel with a clear attitude, who fights against power and current customs with his indomitable stubbornness. His poems overlook all aspects of life from the perspective of all mankind. His chanting of the eternal themes of those poems reached an otherworldly, profound and timeless realm. His love poems are not afraid of the secular world and want to justify the body and sensuality; but there is no vulgar interest in being intimate with each other, but they show the desolation of life and time. Adonis considered himself a "spiritual exile." Poetry alone, however, was his true place of exile. In his eyes, poetry is supreme, and "the era when poetry ends is just another kind of death."

A very good book
I first came into contact with this book through sentence reading. Although it only had one-sided sentence fragments, it could arouse people's curiosity very well. After reading it, I also had a lot of feelings. We are always a lonely person and look at the world with indifference.
