He is widely considered to have been one of the most important figures in Arabic poetry and literature during the first half of the twentieth century. Other notable works by this author include: ¿Music¿ (1905), ¿Rebellious Spirits¿ (1908), and ¿Broken Wings¿ (1912). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.
