A Tale of Ancient Whiteness by Shtiwi Al Githi
Shtiwi Al Githi is a wonderfully learned poet steeped in love for his native Saudi Arabia. He writes poems that stretch across the ages of his country' s history, faith and literary culture. He identifies with the vastness of the desert and the desert sky to draw connections that span the ages and that capture a longing and desire for his homeland and a deep love of his poetic heritage and Islamic culture. His themes also touch on the frustrations of romantic love and the recent isolation inflicted by Covid.This poetry collection offers a fascinating glimpse of the subtlety and depth of a nomadic imagination forged in deep experience of the geography and philosophy and in knowledge of the Quran and of the ancient traditions of Arabic poetry.
