Book Details

Many Things Can Happen When We Forget Why We Give the Rose.

Soundless Guitars, Adulterous Dreams, is Jean Yacoub’s second collection of poems; a sequel to Kites, Bulls, and Roses. Together they cover from the nine-eleven milestone, Iraq wars, illegal immigrants, to the most inner-self politics of love and righteousness.

These are statements of bitter and sad, love-hate memories of an itinerant existence in many lands. Uninvited visitors, they intrude upon your mind, enter your soul.

JY’s poems are complainers with cause. They are campaigners not for religious, nor for secular, but for the other kind of truth.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

JEAN YACOUB, the searcher from the post-WWII slums of the Middle East, still ponders over the question of roots. In spite of extensive travels to diverse cultures, he remains committed and continues the sorrowful journey of his mind.

He is and sometimes he isn’t Armenian. Sometimes Arab, sometimes neither. Sometimes he is and sometimes he isn’t Christian, Moslem, or Jew. Sometimes he just doesn’t care what he is other than a drifting state of mind.
