Against the Broad Paint Brush: An Ode to ‘Middle Eastern’ Diversity
I. Rida Mahmood
To the living mural they call the ‘Middle East’:
To name you one color is to mute the palette.

Meneghin Livia's review
of
Theories of Translation: An Anthology of Essays from Dryden to Derrida:
"Even though this edition was printed in 1992, I didn't expect to read such dated, sometimes sexist and racist language. I was distracted by it and the fact that not one female theorist was featured."

Stephany's review
of
Theories of Translation: An Anthology of Essays from Dryden to Derrida:
"Tedious and pretentious. Not a single female translation expert is represented here. Most essays are philosophical for the sake of being so with little attention paid to the actual process of translation. The theory here is simple common sense to any"
