Showing titles in Middle Eastern

Une route bordée de soie, de 12000 km de long, fait rêver depuis des siècles l'Orient et l'Occident. Une route qui traverse ici, la Chine, le Kirghizistan, l'Ouzbékistan, l'Afghanistan, l'Irak, la Turquie et la Grèce. Elle chemine aux sommets de montagnes ardues, de steppes de velours, de villes enchanteresses. Le vent murmure au voyageur des récits âpres et sauvages, où ces peuples d'Asie centrale vivent en symbiose et en lutte perpétuelle avec une nature aussi grandiose que cruelle.

The poems in Faiz, a Wailing Nightingale establish Faiz as a great lyricist who embraced traditional motifs and subjects with an unrivaled passion and proclivity for verse that explores the natural and illusory qualities of love. Yet, as the title of the collection asserts, Faiz was a wailing nightingale-a tortured man who loved beauty, but found himself surrounded by the pain, sorrow, poverty, bloodshed, and tears of daily life in post-Colonial Pakistan.

Ces proverbes visent à donner accès à un peuple, une culture populaire, dans un format accessible à tous.
