Another provocative collection of poems by Amirah Al Wassif.Writing sometimes feels as dangerous as standing on the edge of a razor’s blade-dreading the slightest tremor that might cut too deep. You either risk injury or bare your soul on the page, exposing yourself and uncovering forbidden truths.As a woman living in the Third World, Amirah Al Wassif often feels as though she’s walking through life blindfolded-bound by traditions and customs she longs to defy. This poetry collection is her tribute to those whose eyes have been forcibly veiled by their societies. It is an elegy for every woman shackled by the chains of dictatorship, racism, and inequality-a lament for all who are buried alive under the weight of oppression.She dedicates these words to every black cat the world has deemed an omen of misfortune, casting stones instead of compassion. The Rules of Blind Obedience is a cry for freedom, justice, and the unyielding courage to reclaim one’s vision and voice in a world determined to silence them.
