Some of the goodies that arrived when ordering the Ghorba Ghost Series through the pre-sale link 😊 Both books have been described by iconic dissident artist Ai Weiwei as "Exquisite". Head to the Darf store to order your copies now.
Little piece on @CaravelMagazine about the Ghorba Ghost Series caravelmagazine.com/2022/05/massou… "Although it is set in China, it is very much about the Jewish Arab identity... It is very much rooted in a politic of love."
Praise for Last Night in Brighton "Massive. Wonderfully transporting and healing, Last Night in Brighton will speak to anyone who has ever felt a longing for home, or wholeness. That is to say: everyone" Alya Mooro, bestselling author of The Greater Freedom

"This is a brilliantly deceptive novel, whip-smart in its subtlety. Like Kazuo Ishiguro’s butler in “The Remains of the Day,” Taki’s narrative is tainted by loyalty and love... There are secrets hiding secrets, things hinted and much left unsaid." japantimes.co.jp/culture/2019/0…

After a decade of working with @DarfPublishers the relationship between small publishers and booksellers puzzles me. I drift between feelings of despair, anger and resentment, every time we produce a highly regarded, well reviewed book, but fail to find it visible in bookshops.
City I think is overrated: Al-Aswany's Cairo City I love: Iman Mersal's Cairo City I feel most myself in: Muhammad al-Hajj's Cairo City I still need to visit: Ahmed Awny's Cairo City I dream of living in: Cairo of "Kanz al-fawid f tanw al-mawid" Favorite city of all time: ...
Great list! Also there's one we somehow missed for our forthcoming in 2023 list: Sadeq Naihum's The Finest Thief in the Kingdom, tr. Safa Elnaili (@DarfPublishers). Can't wait.
This took a lot of heavy-lifting to put together, but it was ALL worth it. My team @brittlepaper did a fantastic job! Here is to a year filled with good books. I hope you find those still moments and spaces to read something fun and African. brittlepaper.com/2023/01/61-ant…
Agnes Newton Keith (1901 – 1982) was an American writer known for 3 autobiographical accounts of life in North Borneo before, during, and after World War2. She lived for 9years in #Libya (50s-60s) and wrote about experience in (Children of Allah) now out for first time in Arabic.
