[TUNIS] / [ تونس ]
Lia Sáile
Every word, every syllable, every nuance is discussed, interpreted, rejected and translated anew. Translating a poem into another language and thus another culture is undertaken here with an urgency as if it were an entire life that had to reassemble itself and make itself understandable. The earnestness of this attempt is both a celebration and a warning.
