New Release: All That Remains of Me
A poetic zine, translated from Arabic to English and Italian
Congratulations, team Tala Manar Abu Jamea, for the release of All That Remains of Me. Originally composed in Arabic and illustrated by Jana Ames, this zine is Tala’s first attempt at expression through poetry.
Zine Description
A poetic, perspective-shifting narrative that pulses with emotion. Bare and bereft of the material substance that once grounded identity, the self is composed of shadows that shift like tides within the soul.
Editions: Arabic (original), English, and Italian.
“The zine is Here – What’s Inside?
It’s finally launched and available!
This isn’t just a collection of poems…
but words written in moments that were far from easy.
There is a mother trying to appear strong,
and a morning that begins in a place unlike any home.
There are small stories never fully told,
and many things between the lines that only those who read to the end will understand.
I didn’t write everything out loud…
some words I left mysterious,
and some I hid between the lines.
Perhaps because some stories cannot be understood at first glance…
but only through feeling.
If you want to discover what these pages conceal…
you will find it inside the zine...✨✨🫶”
—Tala
