The Land without Shadows
One of the first literary works to portray Djiboutians from their own point of view, ''The Land without Shadows'' is a collection of seventeen short stories. The author, Abdourahman A. Waberi, one of a handful of francophone writers of fiction to have emerged in the twentieth century from the ''confetti-sized state'' of Djibouti, has already won international recognition and prizes in African literature for his stories and novels. Because his writing is linked to immigration and exile, his native Djibouti occupies center stage in his work. Drawing on the Somali/Djiboutian oral tradition to weave pieces of legend, proverbs, music, poetry, and history together with references to writers as diverse as Soyinka, Shakespeare, Djebar, Baudelaire, Cesaire, Waugh, Senghor, and Beckett, Waberi succeeds in bringing his country into a context that reaches well beyond the Horn of Africa. Originally published in France in 1994 as ''Le Pays sans ombre'', this newly translated collection presents

Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya on the Invocation of God
Written in the fourteenth century by the renowned theologian Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya, 'Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya on the Invocation of God' is a translation of one of his most popular works, 'al-Wabil al-Sayyib', which movingly details the many blessings of the remembrance of God. Through discussions of the ego, the nature of the body, the ephemerality of the world, the degrees of prayer, fasting, charity, and the purification of the heart, this beautifully written work is a genuine contribution to Muslim spirituality. What makes 'Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya on the Invocation of God' of great interest is that it illustrates the spiritual life of Ibn al-Qayyim and of his teacher, the Hanbalite reformer Ibn Taymiyya. As Ibn al-Qayyim says in the 'al-Wabil al-Sayyib', 'We have mentioned [in it] nearly one hundred benefits of remembrance of God [dhikr], and the secrets of remembrance... This is a book of great usefulness.'---Translated for the first time into English by Michael Abdurrahman
