bookishmillennial's review against another edition
An absolutely stunning collection of poetry that was haunting, devastating, and powerful. Asghar’s creativity shines in the way they experiment with formats, such as crosswords, fill-in-the-blank, and more (typically) playful concepts yet presenting such grim and upsetting material. Asghar provides the historical context which is woven into many of the poems: the Indian/Pakistani Partition, which is another example of Great Britain fucking shit up for everyone.
I highly recommend this, and want my own physical copy now 💟
