Following Arshi's Forward prize-winning collection, Small Hands, this book continues in its lyrical exploration of grief. Moving and discomfiting, these poems tune to the dangers and violences of the contemporary world, yet, at the centre of this book is an overarching commitment to hope and its 'churning, broken song'.

Mona Arshi's debut collection, Small Hands, introduces a brilliant and compelling new voice. At the center of the book is the slow detonation of grief after her brother's death but her work focuses on the whole variety of human experience: pleasure, hardship, tradition, energised by language which is in turn both tender and risky. Often startling as well as lyrical, Arshi's poems resist fixity; there is a gentle poignancy at work here which haunt many of the poems. This is humane poetry. Arshi's is a daring, moving and original voice.
