Pieces of Late-Ripening Fruit

Ghattas Maqdisi Elias, "Malphono Denho," was perhaps the greatest Syriac poet of the twentieth century and a major figure in the Syriac literary revival which took place then. This book collects together a number of Maqdisi's writings, including poems, a series of letters written to Abrohom Nouro, selected Syriac and Arabic essays, as well as the Maqdisi's last interview (conducted in English).
