POWERFUL SNAPSHOTS

I enjoyed the poems added to ‘ Twist of Fates’ because there are some powerful images created in the poems that taking hundreds of hidden faces to be unveiled.
The pure brilliance of the poet of the book heals the hurt souls of humanity with some new medicated ideas. The shattered world he is living in is making him as a sensitized observer and anyone who ever had his heart broken, can just captures the such feelings.
I love the images and atmosphere created and can this man create an atmosphere!!
He manages to take life’s drama and emotions and creates powerful snapshots.
These images echo the truths we all seek to understand about ourselves and the world around us.
There are also some darker issues that are well handled in poems with great poetic techniques. I appreciate his symbolic and visualized themes that let the readers to realize about the issues he discloses.
Human Evolution really speaks volumes about the cruelty of mankind. The poet of ‘ Twist of Fates’ over viewed the world’s miserable sides successfully and Alley Boling, has also un doubtfully translated his verses with great concerns.
Others stumble to handle such topics but Afzal Shauq brings them to us with grace and dignity.
When reading his work, one can almost imagine that peace could enfold our world.
His desire for bridging the gaps between mankind are very apparent through out the book.
I believe this book is truly for the blind people of the world to open their eyes that they might see.
This is a meal of a book, a veritable feast for the heart and soul.
