Rosenberg, Chairman of Board, Lab Discoveries, Ltd With a sense of refined purpose, Grace Halabi, once again entices all senses with her exquisite assembly of words. Rhythm, rhyme and patterns harmonically balanced in breadth and depth, invite the reader into a sanctuary of beauty and soulfulness. A New Dawn, an inspiring literary collection akin to Khalil Gibran s style of writing, is indeed a reflection of her roots, as there is elegance in her dictum and nobility in her rebellion. In classic Halabi style, Grace s beguiling arrangement of words, invites the reader to a world of flagrant truth and nostalgic revival.
