'May we always have the music and elegant fury of Tishani Doshi's poetry.'

FATIMA BHUTTO

'The poems of Tishani Doshi's A God at the Door operate on the grand scale, reaching for visionary responses ... stunning and ambitious.'

THE GUARDIAN

'At the core of Doshi's poetry is a quest, traced through anguish and exhilaration, for that hidden yet ever-present harmony which connects all species, animates all things, heals all trauma. A reader could explore the topographies of this book for ever.'

RANJIT HOSKOTE

Tishani Doshi's new book of poems tackles hyper-nationalism and misogyny head on, transforming a collective grief, anger and loneliness into a beam of hope and resilience. Shortlisted for the 2021 Forward Prize for Best Collection, A God at the Door is nothing short of a tour de force.
