Kalima initiative seeks to translate books into Arabic

What literature best captures American dreams, opportunities, and challenges? Which books could help build mutual understanding between the United States and the Arab world?

Kalima ("word" in Arabic)--a nonprofit initiative which translates classic and contemporary writing into Arabic--invites Americans to nominate U.S. novels, poetry, or short stories for translation for Arabic readers worldwide. For further information and to submit a nomination, visit the Kalima webpage.
