What is political poetry and linguistic activism? What does it
mean to bear witness through writing? When language proves
insufficient, how do we find and articulate a pathway forward?
Dear
God. Dear Bones. Dear Yellow. interrogates, subverts, and expands
these questions through poems that are formally and lyrically
complex, dynamic, and innovative. With rich intertextuality and an
unwavering eye, Noor Hindi explores and interrogates colonialism,
religion, patriarchy, and the complex intersections of her identity.
Featuring
her widely circulated poem, "Fuck Your Lecture on Craft, My
People Are Dying," this book is an incomparable force of fury
and precision from a powerful and unstoppable poet. Noor Hindi's
collection is ultimately a provocation: on trauma, on art, and on
what it takes to truly see the world for what it is/isn't and change
it for the better.
