dc.description.abstractThe High Road to Harrar is a reflective poem that evokes the imagery, rhythm, and mysticism of travel across the ancient landscapes between Diré Dawa and Harrar. Drawing on motifs of desert journeys, ancient trade routes, and spiritual encounters, the poem weaves themes of freedom, pilgrimage, and the continuity of African and Arabian cultural traditions.
