New collection of provocative poetry denounces injustices in all its form, speaks of freedom
Debuting author Youcef Boudjbiha announces the release of 'The Traits'
SYDNEY, July 6, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Youcef Boudjbiha, in his first literary offering titled "The Traits" (published by Balboa Press AU), offers a collection of thought-provoking poems that denounces injustices in all its form and speaks of freedom.
"The Traits" is the result of continuous research and writing about a rebellious life. It traces a trajectory of people's refusal to submit systems that govern entire societies without being fairly elected. It also highlights the government atrocities that that transformed countries such as Algeria, South Afriaca, Zimbabwe and Australia, and created hell for their own people.
"There are still occupations taking place in our modern societies. The war in Ukraine is an example," Boudjbiha states. When asked what he wants readers to take away, the author responds, "Learn about people's struggles around them."
A snippet from the poem "My Name Is Asylum" reads:
My name is Asylum.
I was born detained
But not to be detained.
I have 850 days.
I am thinking,
How did I get here?
How did I find myself here,
Here in the detention centre?
I don't even know why I'm here.
Nobody told me why.
