Happy to announce the release of "NULLE PRISON N’ ENFERMERA TON POEM» An anthology of world poetry against censorship and suppression! This anthology published in French by Oxyiba Publications in France.

Poetry resists so that freedom can be achieved for everyone!

I would like to thank all the poets who have sent us poems in this movement and declared their solidarity with Afghan poets by writing poems. This is a poetic protest against the restriction, suppression and censorship of art in Afghanistan. Your presence with poetry and words has given meaning to this movement!

A large part of these poems has been translated into French by Cecile Oumhani, that deeply appreciate her cooperation and comprehensive efforts in supporting the Baamdaad movement!

Also, thanks to the translation of Elizabeth Guyon Spennato, Benyamin Aghhavani-Shajari and Franck Merger and a special thanks for Carole Carcillo Mesrobian for her support to publishing this Anthology!

The poets who contributed to the anthology will receive specific information about how to get the book.
