The dead can’t sing your praise. The songs you would like to hear. We grieve here as you fade like shadows.
Acclaimed poet Shahab Ahmed returns with another diverse collection of poems. Shahab looks at many aspects of the modern world and how that mixes with our emotions – how will we react when we only interact with each other but only with technology?
This collection provides a thought provoking look at modern life and makes us think about our future.
Shahab Ahmed was a Pakistani-American scholar of Islam at Harvard University. Professor Elias Muhanna of Brown University described Ahmed's posthumous work, What Is Islam?, as "a strange and brilliant work, encyclopedic in vision and tautly argued in the manner of logical proof, yet pervaded by the urgency of a political manifesto."
