A Reading and Conversation about Poetry and Translation with Iman Mersal and Robyn Creswell

The Threshold is a collection of poems by Iman Mersal, the Arab world’s great outsider poet. Robyn Creswell’s English versions of her poems have appeared in The Paris Review, The New York Review of Books, The Yale Review, and The New Republic. An early review calls The Threshold “a ravishing new collection” that “obliterates the boundaries between imagination and argument, fiction and nonfiction.”
