Refugee: Poems of El Salvador and Palestine, by Paul Totah

By Paul Totah

by Daniel Clarke Flynn 3rd July 2026

This is a short, impressive, and deeply moving collection of narrative poems. They allow the people that author Paul Totah interviewed to speak their truth in sometimes raw, stark, and shocking ways. The poetry invites us to pause and absorb what is being said more than prose could.
