Call Me Home

by Harman Kaur

English 150 pages 1 edition

‘ Call Me Home is both familiar and inviting, yet also unsettling and thought-provoking. I found reflections of my own life as a Sikh within many of the poems… Each poem is powerful [and a] journey that deepens our awareness of our interconnectedness.’—Simran Jeet Singh, bestselling author of The Light We Give ‘[A] testament to the immigrant experience… Harman’s words gave voice to feelings I’ve been trying to understand my whole life.’—Hinnah Mian, author of Pangaea This remarkable book of poems by a Canadian-born Sikh is a powerful exploration of the diverse manifestations of home, extending beyond its mere physicality, through topics such as womanhood, spirituality, family, love and immigration. Harman’s evocative poems—often as intense as they are wise; as personal as they are political—are narratives of loss, rediscovery, faith and healing that will resonate with every sensitive and seeking reader. With rich language and imagery, this collection offers fresh perspectives, inviting us all to reconsider our understanding of what it means to feel at home. This special Indian edition of Call Me Home includes poems from Harman’s debut collection, Phulkari .
