Description: What is political poetry and linguistic activism? What does it mean to bear witness through writing? When language proves insufficient, how do we find and articulate a pathway forward? Dear God. Dear Bones. Dear Yellow. Interrogates, subverts, and expands these questions through poems that are formally and lyrically complex, dynamic, and innovative. With rich intertextuality and an unwavering eye, Noor Hindi explores and interrogates colonialism, religion, patriarchy, and the complex intersections of her identity. Featuring her widely circulated poem, 'Fuck Your Lecture on Craft, My People Are Dying," this book is an incomparable force of fury and precision from a powerful and unstoppable poet. Noor Hindi's collection is ultimately a provocation: on trauma, on art, and on what it takes to truly see the world for what it is/isn't and change it for the better. Waterstones DEAR GOD.

Review: Underpinning this excellent collection of poems are the author's disappointment in an unjust world, told with playful lightheartedness at times and seething hot rage at others. Themes of America, Palestine, immigration, love, patriarchy, and conflict with the industry of your profession are wonderfully blended in this tidy, beautiful book.

Review: Full of pain. This is not light entertainment - this is an indictment against a world that has cancelled the Palestinian people. If you are an American and do not like your image in her mirror, then you perhaps have the potential to wake up and grow a heart. I hope I do.
