"Here is a distilled, elemental collection that stages, with every poem, a life lived--thriving, attentive, defiant, tender--amid the ruins, in Palestine. In Taha's pages you will find an accounting, a dramatis personae of injustice, an eschatology heavy with the knowledge that another world is possible." --Alex Tan, Words Without Borders "Taha uses beautiful lyricism to reflect on justice and humanity while writing from Ramallah, capturing her proximity to the Gaza genocide and its unfathomable loss. This collection uses poetry to create empty spaces for landscape to form, materializing worlds from olive trees to prison cells, and declaring the intimate resilience found in the search of beauty amid terror." --Lucy Yu, Electric Literature "In Taha's lyric poems, translated by Sara Elkamel, there's no lazy syllable, no wasted gesture; everything has the feel of elemental, irreducible truth. Enter World gives us pulverizing simultaneity, rendered heart-forward with extraordinary virtuosity. Taha is a major, major poet." --Kaveh Akbar "Each 'Enter' in Dalia Taha's breathtaking Enter World shoulders a deeply human and humanizing world and return it to us reimagined, luminous, and bravely alive.
Sara Elkamel's translation carries every shade of tone and rhythm and every tremor, edge, and radiance of Taha's work." --Khaled Mattawa.
