What elevates 'teaching my mother how to give birth', what gives the poems their disturbing brilliance, is Warsan Shire's ability to give simple, beautiful eloquence to the veiled world where sensuality lives in the dominant narrative of Islam; reclaiming the more nuanced truths of earlier times - as in Tayeb Salih's work - and translating to the realm of lyric the work of the likes of Nawal El Saadawi. As Rumi said, "Love will find its way through all languages on its own"; in 'teaching my mother how to give birth', Warsan's début pamphlet, we witness the unearthing of a poet who finds her way through all preconceptions to strike the heart directly.

I highly recommend this book if you love shape-shifters or paranormal! Looking forward to read Tall, Dark and Vampire.. What makes it even more brilliant? The haikus were actually written in the tradition of Basho. wonderful story--fast pace and yet lots of details that really help capture the scene and the personalities. I really enjoyed reading this book and learned from it a lot. If you are serious about developing ArcView based GIS applications, don't even bother starting without having this book on hand. In the next one: " body, mind and proper breathing must be involved". Read through the night. So once you have perhaps two or three of these CD's you might was well save your money on buying more, because they will all sound the same.
The imagery is practically identical in many cases. Excellent book about the history of how a so harmful substance seduced the humanity. I
