- Description
This Sweet Rupture is a heartfelt poetry collection that explores themes of family secrets, diaspora, food culture, and the effects of war on personal stories. Drawing from Ramadan’s experiences as a first-generation son of Lebanese immigrants in Canada, the poems reflect on intergenerational exchanges and contemporary realities, ranging from the preparation of sweetened tea to discussions about conflict zones. As these poems address themes of memory and family, individual poems or the entire book could be used to deepen students’ under-standing of cultural diversity, historical perspectives, and personal expression by integrating them in lessons building on themes of identity and community.
