DarArab for Publishing and Translation

The English edition of My (War) emerged at this grim and turbulent moment of conflict. Yet, as I wrote on the novel’s opening page; “war is our postponed destiny.” I wish all readers a meaningful reading experience, for reading is humanity’s ongoing history.

Coming soon! „The War“ by Mohamed Alyahyai - get your copy earlier through #Doha_international_book_fair next month! @Malyahyai

This is why we publish. Not to explain the region— but to let it speak. #StoriesBeyondWar

Through translation, these voices travel. Not as news— but as stories that stay. #StoriesBeyondWar

Wars create headlines. Stories preserve lives #StoriesBeyondWar
