Mind Platter

Najwa Zebian tackles over 200 subjects and reflects on each in her poetry collection.

Najwa Zebian

Mind Platter is a compilation of reflections on life as seen through the eyes of an educator, studentand human who experienced her early days in silence. It is written in the words of a woman who came from Lebanon to Canada at the age of 16and experienced what it was like to have fate push her to a place where she didn't belong. It is written in the voice of every person who has felt unheard, mistreated, misjudgedor unseen. The book contains over 200 one-page reflections on topics we encounter in our everyday lives: love, friendship, hurt, inspiration, respect, motivation, integrity, honestyand more. Mind Platter is not about the words it contains, but what the reader makes of them. May this book give a voice to those who need one, be a crying shoulder for those who yearn for someone to listenand inspire those who need a reminder of the power they have over their lives. (From Simon & Schuster)
