Product Description  

For readers of Fatimah Asghar's and If They Come for Us, here is a searing, multidimensional debut about the search for language and self, which is life itself.I knew it was time to build what could carry, what could find the high pointto name what I knew to be the world and carry it with meAt the heart of and The Knot of My Tongue and is Zehra Naqvi's storying of language itself and the self-re-visioning that follows devastating personal rupture. Employing a variety of poetic forms, these intimate, searching poems address generations, continents, and dominions to examine loss of expression in the aftermath of collisions with powerful forces, ranging from histories to intimacies. and Naqvi follows a cast of characters from personal memory, family history, and Quranic traditions, at instances where they have either been rendered silent or found ways to attempt the inexpressible-a father struggling to speak as an immigrant in Canada; a grandmother as she loses her children and her home after the 1947 Partition; and the Islamic story of Hajar, abandoned in the desert without water; the myth of Philomela who finds language even after her husband cuts off her tongue. and and Brilliantly blending the personal and the communal, memory and myth, theology and tradition, the poems in this collection train our attention-slow and immediate, public and private-on our primal ability to communicate, recover, and survive. This example is striking for the power of its speaking through loss and a singular, radiant vision.
