SUMMARY:A Discussion and Reading with Fady Joudah – Exhibit G: Poems\, Essays\, and Photographs of Gaza
DESCRIPTION:Join the Center for the Middle East and North Africa for a reading and talk with award-winning poet and translator Fady Joudah. \nIn Exhibit G: Fady Joudah writes from the split perspective of a Palestinian American physician caring for the sick while watching the destruction of Gaza from the United States\, a nation complicit in that destruction. He locates the paradox of his position everywhere: in the seed a sparrow eats from his proffered hand; in his writing in English\, the oppressor’s language; in the faces of Palestinian children receiving meals from aid kitchens—a glimpse into what his life could have been\, and what is being lost in a war disproportionately impacting children and their families. Throughout the book\, beauty insists on its survival not only through the Palestinian people\, but also through the nonhuman world in which he takes occasional refuge from the devastation that humanity brings upon itself. \n \nFady Joudah is the author of […] (2024)\, a finalist for the National Book Award and winner of the Lenore Marshall Poetry Prize\, and Exhibit G (2026). His other poetic works include: The Earth in the Attic (2008) ; Alight (2013); Textu (2014)\, a book-long sequence of short poems whose meter is based on cellphone character count; Footnotes in the Order of Disappearance (2018); and Tethered to Stars (2021). He has translated several collections of poetry from the Arabic and is the co-editor and co-founder of the Etel Adnan Poetry Prize. He was a winner of the Yale Series of Younger Poets competition and has received the Jackson Poetry Prize\, a PEN award\, a Banipal/Times Literary Supplement prize from the UK\, the Griffin Poetry Prize\, a Guggenheim Fellowship\, and the Arab American Book Award. He lives in Houston with his wife and kids where he practices internal medicine. \nPresented by the Center for the Middle East and North Africa and co-sponsored by the Humanities Institute\, the Peggy and Jack Baskin Foundation Presidential Chair in Feminist Studies\, and Possibilities of Palestinian Refusal.
