Description - Suspended Somewhere Between: A Book of Verse by Ahmed Akbar

A highly personal collection of poems from 'one of the leading authorities on contemporary Islam' (BBC). Spanning half a century of writing, Ahmed's poems give readers a front row seat to a world in turmoil. Can there be more drama than in Ahmed's first memories as a boy of four on a train through the killing fields of north India in 1947? Or the breakup of Pakistan into two countries in 1971? In the midst of change and uncertainty exists the optimism and faith of a young man with confidence in the future but an awareness of the problems it may hold.
