Opting Out : Early, New, and Collected Poems 2000-2015

The Chatwin Collected Poets series launches with Opting Out, by Maged Zaher, of Cairo and Seattle. Zaher's powerful, innovative voice has won wide accolades in recent years. We are thrilled to present his full range of work in this major collection.

"Zaher is a proud Seattleite (by way of Egypt), and a substantial collection of his work is a big deal for the Seattle literary scene, even more so because he's being published by a Seattle press. Expect to hear a lot about this book in the next few months."(Seattle Review of Books)
