After Mahmoud Darwish's death in 2008, his friend Breyten Breytenbach was inspired to create this collection of poems honoring him. There is much fertile common ground the two poets share: a guiding empathy, an uncompromising commitment to truth and humanity, a language and dreamscape rooted in love and hope. Voice Over is Breytenbach's passionate and elegiac exploration 'to look for Darwish among the words'.
