About Time

by Rehan Qayoom

'About Time' offers unexpected human emotion mixed with scores of intelligent references extracted from Qayoom's dual-sided heaven of death and life, perspectives from inside Christian and Muslim doctrines looking outwards, even right and left brains. Offering his reader a sense of balance in strife, in love and most everyone's preoccupation with expressing himself, Qayoom replaces our eyes with his. If there is not one heaven, Qayoom's reader has no choice but to enter the other, continuing his days in hope despite how bleak a moment may seem. Rehan Qayoom studied English literature at Birkbeck College, University of London. His poems (in English and Urdu) and articles have appeared in numerous magazines and periodicals. His books include 'Seeking Betjeman Country' and 'Prose 1997 - 2008.' He has edited 2 volumes of the prose and poetry of Morney Wilson 'Martyr Doll' and 'Remains' (2011).
