Silver Road: Essays, Maps & Calligraphies

Using essays, diary entries, prose maps, and verse fragments, Kazim Ali marks a path through quantum physics, sixth-century Chola Empire sculptures, the challenges of literary translation and of climate change, and destruction of a priceless set of handmade flutes by airport security. Amid shards from far-flung histories and geographies he finds the cosmos.

“Award-winning poet Kazim Ali….unveils a multitude of facets in this jewel of a book.”—RHINO.
