طيور أيلول معرِض فنّي للقرية اللبنانيّة في شتّى مظاهرها. ولولا أنّ ترابكِ من تراب القرية، ثمّ لولا أنّك تملكين قسطًا كبيرًا من رهافة الحسّ، وسلامة الذوق، ودقّة الملاحظة، وعمق الشعور بالقيَم الكلاميّة والإنسانيّة والجماليّة، لما تأتّى لكِ أن تصوّري القرية ذلك التصوير

Narcy’s verses span the space between hip-hop and manifesto, portraying a crumbling, end-stage capitalist society, visions for a new reality, and the myth of multiculturalism in post-9/11 America.

بين روح تمردت على جسدها، ومزقت رداء الخضوع والتسليم، وانطلقت محلقة في فضاءاتها المكتنزة بالسر الأزلي لتقتات النور، وبين نفس استسلمت لغواية الطين ونزق التراب، سطرت كلمات هذا الكتاب، التي قد تبدو للوهلة الأولى حكايات وصورا لتجارب عابرة ومواقف عفوية، لكنها ليست كذلك، فهي إما قطرات من نزف الذاكرة وبعض أمنيات ورجاءات تنتظر منكسرة على أعتاب القدر العادل، وإما آمال وآلام شذت عن المكنون، فانتهكت المستور، وما أكثر ما تفعل ذلك! لقارئي العزيز أن يحلق كيفما شاء، أو يذعن لوساوس نفسه إن شاء، ففي كلتا الحالتين سيرى ذاته هنا أو هناك، وسيعيش التناقض المحتوم. المؤلفة
