ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Meet Yasmeen Jawhar

Yasmeen Jawhar is a Palestinian-American poet and writer whose writing is a combination of emotions, culture, and reflection. Her poetry is a true picture of human experience, sorrows, identity, love, survival, and honesty crossing the generations.

Yasmeen was born into the family of narrators and pedagogues, and their tradition is the voice that has an inherited memory and modern reality. Her first book, titled The Unspoken Words -For What Remains Unsaid, was written in dedication to the people who never lived long enough and as a promise to continue their light through words.

The writing reflects on her background, her religion, and the universal peace of peace in the disorder. The poems reveal her belief in poetry as a treatment, a revolution, a form of remembering, rebelling, and being born again.

Yasmeen does not write when she does not, but she does it by making her poetry read at readings and other literary events and inviting people to use words as a way of understanding and curing.
