Reviews
'The poems are amplified by powerful black and white drawings by the author. The line is Imtiaz Dharker's sole weapon in a zone of assault which stretches over the Indian subcontinent's bloody history, the shifting dynamics of personal relationships and the torment of an individual caught between two cultures, divergent world-views' - Ranjit Hoskote, The Times of India'Hers is a strong, concerned, economical poetry, in which political activity, homesickness, urban violence, religious anomalies, are raised in an unobtrusive domestic setting, all the more effectively for their coolness of treatment' - Alan Ross, London Magazine.'Here is no glib internationalism or modish multiculturalism ...Displacement here no longer spells exile; it means an exhilarating sense of life at the interstices. There is an exultant celebration of a self that strips off layers of superfluous identity with grace and abandon, only to discover that it has not diminished, but grown larger, generous, more inclusive' - Arundhathi Subramaniam, Poetry International.'Were there to be a World Laureate, Imtiaz Dharker would be the only candidate' - Carol Ann Duffy.

Love this Bible. The cover is better than expected since it is not leather, the text block is great, plenty of room for notes, the paper quality is good, and I like where the references are located on the page. Very nice wide margin edition for every day use.
