Confession

Confession is the title of the whole volume of verse, and is a title of one poem whose medial position is symbolic and expressive of the heart and core of the book. It is a moment of pouring her heart and a vent of her long-pent-up emotions, a rare and very brave moment in the female viewpoint in her society. It is certainly a feather in Ms Al Mandil's cap to be Qabbanis' counterpart in addressing the male side, the same way Qabbani had addressed the female side.
