A collation of poems that tells the stories of author's life in four sections: childhood and early adulthood; motherhood; meditations on light; and love and art.
In this extended elegey for her mother, each poem written in couplets and contained within the space of sixteen lines, Mimi Khalvati takes the weather, the seasons and the passage of night and day as the ground on which she draws her emblems of human life and love.
Prize-winning Iranian-born poet and celebrated founder of The Poetry School (London) explores her diverse culture in a series of brilliant `oriental sonnets.'
Inspired by Shakespeare's songs, the short poems of Emily Dickinson, and Wordsworth's Lucy poems, this collection of songlike poetry is based on the ubiquitous spread of weeds - like the shallow rooting plants, small poems can grow anywhere. It demonstrates a mastery of traditional forms and experiments with the Ghazal, an ancient Persian form.
Spanning nine collections, this anthology showcases the breadth of Mimi Khalvati's poetic voice, featuring both her established works and previously uncollected poems. The collection highlights her unique themes and stylistic evolution, offering readers a comprehensive view of her contributions to contemporary poetry.
