The GRIEF issue of ArabLit Quarterly brings readers & writers together into a space of shared rage, shared love, and a shared way forward. We share in the horror of seeing small children covered in the grime of cement dust and smoke; the horror of manufactured hunger and deprivation; the horror of a whiteboard on which healthcare workers have written REMEMBER US. We share in the grief-rage of people kidnapped by governments, of climate collapse, of profit margins wedged open far enough to swallow people whole.
