Abu Nuwas was a great Arabic poet whose poetry encapsulated the society of his time. Major parts of his work were censored by state and mosque. It's only recently that the suppressed material has been allowed to see the light of day, and this new translation of the known khamriyyat faithfully reflects the original.
