Ayaz+Pirani Naklanki

Ayaz Pirani’s new book release, Bachelor of Art, is a chapbook of poems. Published by Anstruther Press and edited by award-winning Canadian poet Jim Johnstone, the book’s Bachelor+of+Art+Half+Covercover features a calligram of Hazrat Ali as the tiger of God. Individual poems include “Nakalanki,” “Sat Panth,” and “Historical Disadvantage.” As with his previous books, Happy You Are Here and Kabir’s Jacket Has a Thousand Pockets, this new chapbook is also informed by his affection for ginans and living heritage. Themes include geography, immigration, and faith in the modern world.
