Yahia Lababidi, Egyptian-American, is the author of two critically-acclaimed books of aphorisms: Signposts to Elsewhere (2019) and Where Epics Fail (2018). Lababidi is also the author of four well-received books of poetry and prose, including The Artist as Mystic (2017) and Balancing Acts: New & Selected Poems (2016). He has participated in international literary festivals throughout the USA and Europe, as well as the Middle East.
