Moon Ink by Seddik Jelouane
"Took this book with me on a summer trip, and it turned out to be the best kind of company. There’s a rawness, a warmth, and a quiet rhythm that lingers long after the last page.
These are the kind of poems that make you pause and feel, or reread alone" Read more of this review »
Moon Ink by Seddik Jelouane
"I’ve been keeping this book by my bedside. I read it every time I need a hug.
Every poem speaks to me so deeply, like it knows exactly where it hurts—and how to hold me through it.
"
Moon Ink by Seddik Jelouane
"I've been an admirer of Seddik's work for some time now, and I've witnessed a remarkable growth in his poetry. This one is a captivating blend of romanticism, raw emotion, and a touch of sweetness.
Totally recommended. "

Seddik Jelouane, The Field of Desire

“I've heard them say love is in the air, and I never stopped breathing since.”

Poems deeper than scars-
Flaming out like dead stars,
Pouring down through rain-
To heal away my pain.”
