Twice he has been a finalist for the Nobel Prize. For Adonis, poetry is a vision (ru'ya) a \"leap outside of established concepts, a change in the order of things and in the way we look at them.\" His work often centers on the process of poetic creation. Selected from Al-A'mal al Shi'riyya (The Complete Works, 3 volumes), the current book explores the great Syrian poet's oeuvre more than in any other previous collection in English.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Open Books: A Poem Emporium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45536817119255,"sku":"9781931243292","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0004\/6497\/7956\/files\/61IanFGcwYL._SL1412.jpg?v=1789945317","url":"https:\/\/open-books-a-poem-emporium.myshopify.com\/products\/adonis-if-only-thpb","provider":"Open Books: A Poem Emporium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
