Controversial yet Necessary

By Nader G. Attar

'Controversial yet Necessary' is an uncompromised narrative that begins at the book's first poem, giving the reader a taste of what it means to be a refugee and an immigrant. The collection is challenging in its themes as well as its language, with all its poems written in strong and confronting language that engages the reader in complex and subtle questions and statements exploring, amongst other things, racism, hate, loss, exile, political hypocrisy and how these are viewed from the refugees' and immigrants' side. Nader G. Attar aims, in his first collection of poetry, to push boundaries, draw readers out of their comfort zone and give a different voice to refugees and immigrants: a voice that is strong yet doesn't hide the pain.
