Description

An exploration of fatherhood that takes us beyond the quotidian to explore the ties that bind with a philosophical eye and a lyrical heart.


In his most personal collection yet, Omar Sabbagh brings a concentrated gaze to bear on turbulent emotions. Morning Lit is a deep and sustained exploration of fatherhood, marriage and bereavement: of love and its shadow side, which is loss. Crammed with symbolism, it is a work of maturity both emotional and poetic.

Fiona Sampson


Omar Sabbagh offers his readers deeply contemplative-and even more deeply felt-windows into the both the seemingly relentless tensions and nearly transcendent joys of family life. Sabbagh masterfully demonstrates the full range of his poetic voice and craftsmanship, choosing most often to approach profound tribulation and self-interrogation within precisely contained rhymes and rhythms while bursting effusively into wholly charming exaltations in celebration of his daughter. Here, nothing is valued more than kindness, yet, with its abundant references to philosophy, psychology, history, and economic theory, Morning Lit;Portals After Alia reminds us that being present and open to the struggles and wonders of our own lives requires every resource of mind and heart we have.

Kathleen Graber, author o The River Twice
Here is a paean to fatherhood in all its terrifying joy and vulnerability. It evokes the gratitude of the born-again parent, the wonder of being programmed 'to love unconditionally', of being compelled to 'agree, and agree, and agree', and of acknowledging that one's love is now one's 'only, final fear'. Luminous, tender and gently delirious, Omar Sabbagh's poems celebrate an awakening into a new sacredness. Arundhathi Subramaniam

Bursting with thoughtful and ebullient verse [that] spills-over with warmth and joy at the birth of a daughter, Alia. Omar Sabbagh adds his distinctive voice to the literature of fatherhood.
