A Writer of Prose and A Writer of Poetry V.1
Dr. Dahesh/Halim Dammous
$26.00
In this book, Dr. Dahesh rephrases most of what he has written between 1930 and 1950 into octave-rhymed stanzas; then the poet Halim Dammous “being aware,” as he says, “of the impact of these inspired words and of the origin of these heart-deep feelings,” transposes them from rhymed prose into rhymed verse.
In the verse version, the reader finds an almost total faithfulness to the original rhymed prose and at the same time an easy flow of rhythm.

Dr. Dahesh's Journeys Around the World Vol.1
Dr. Dahesh
$55.00
al-Rihlah al-Ula' Am 1969 (From the East to the West with Dr. Georges Khabsa, 1969) Travel is not accidental in the life of Dr. Dahesh. He traveled wide and far to the Middle and Far East, Russia, North America, and almost all of the African and European countries. He recorded, in this series, facts of his travels, his observations, and his wide-ranged commentaries. Dr. Dahesh';s travel literature stands out for its fidelity to facts in narration and description, its accuracy in recording the exact time and numbers, its exploration of the natural, cultural, social, and economic aspects of each country he visited, the similarities and differences among nations. Dr. Dahesh';s Journeys come close to being an autobiography, acquainting the reader with the personality of the author, his attitudes, taste, spiritual philosophy, and the manner of his life.

Fleeting Mirages
Dr. Dahesh
$24.00
This book consists of prose and rhymed poems which have some general distinctive characteristics in common with the author’s contemplative and emotive literature. Five major events cast dark shadows over the book: the crucifying persecution against Dr. Dahesh, the death of Dr. Dahesh’s mother, the suicide of Magda Hadad, the second World War, and the assassination of Gandhi, “the prophet of humanity.” However this dark view is counterbalanced with a bright side emanating from poems about love and nature.

Dr. Dahesh
$60.00
An unusual novel which Dr. Dahesh had composed in less than 24 hours spread over 12 days (from the third to the fourteenth of January 1946).
The hero, a Dinar(a golden coin), by virtue of its transference from one hand to another roams several countries for almost a century.

Above all, it records its observations with the genius of a spellbinding storyteller and renders its judgments with the wisdom of a philosopher.
The book is a summary statement of the views of the author regarding society and its corruption, clergymen, politics, human rights, courts of justice, money, love, psychology of wars, art and literature. Underlying his harsh critical attitude is the author’s deep desire for reform.

My Ruined Hand or How I Fell the Destructive Death Fall
Dr. Dahesh
$15.00
Have you ever read about an author who had written a whole book about his hand and its pains? It is a novel subject which perhaps only Dr. Dahesh had tackled.
This book is a collection of lyrical pieces, most of which are rhymed, in which the author expresses over a period of three years the pains of his hand as a result of his delipidating fall in the spring of 1976.
The extraordinary ability of Dr. Dahesh appears in his “anatomy of the feelings of grief” However, his work is not cofined to an anlysis of his pain, for he ascribes the painful fall, the continuation of pain, and the lack of any cure at the physicians' hands to the principle of divine justice. Then soon you find him raising his supplications to God, his last refuge, that He may have mercy on him and heal his hand.
