Mahmood Jamal's poetry speaks of division and its consequences. From the divided self to the divided world his lines traverse the actualities of separation and intimate the possibilities of reconciliation. We live in an age when poetry needs its politics; though we should never forget that politics always needs its poetry. Jamal supplies both in full measure. Ian Syson, publisher at the Vulgar Press and contributing editor to Overland magazine, Australia
