Tala Manar Abu Jamea
A 20-year-old from Gaza, studying Artificial Intelligence with fierce determination despite the siege and endless disruptions. She holds multiple certificates in graphic design, digital art, and creative tools; skills she uses to shape beauty from chaos, whether in pixels or words. In these poems, her voice emerges as both witness and dreamer, refusing to let war silence the stories that must be told.
Tala is the author of All That Remains of Me, illustrated by Jana Ames. Originally written in Arabic, this zine was translated into English by Leah Harris.
All That Remains of Me
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.
