Chants of a Woman

About this book

Yasmin Emara's poetry emerges from years of words held behind convention and silence. The collection reflects a woman's movement between fracture and dignity, broken promises and spiritual certainty. She appears as a butterfly breaking its bonds, a mountain refusing to bend before envy, and a seeker praising the Prophet and drawing nearer to the Creator. These chants transform waiting into expression and pain into motion. They speak to readers tired of pretending and to hearts searching for belonging, freedom, and hope.
