there are bodies here

there are bodies here is the debut poetry collection from Syrian writer and activist Nour Al Ghraowi. Nour's poems weave a lyrical tapestry of the deeply personal and the unabashedly political as she explores the migrant experience in an often hostile Western world. Al Ghraowi generously invites the reader in and guides them through her world where beauty and horror intersect at truth.

"Nour Al Ghraowi writes from the deepest reservoir of compassion and listening–her exquisite capacity for care extends across all distances, and her lyrical poems, grounded in true humanity, restore our hope."

– Naomi Shihab Nye
