Razor sharp and near perfect. the poems present all intriguing poi-II-ail of the man who wrote them. Rashid's poems arc as self-revelatory as they are distinctly humane, reflecting a purity Of spirit seldom visible in Pakistani English poetry. From unguarded moments of deeply explored self-reflection to commenting On the tragic inner and outer landscapes of the self, Rashid's work lies at the intersection of literature and politics as he sketches vivid pictures or the terrified fearful child, the hopelessly bereft mother, the blood and words of love spilled over hostile rock and sand. Rashid's work is evocative. powerful and a splendid read."
