Publisher Marketing: Fairoz is a book-length poetry sequence in which Moniza Alvi explores an imagined teenage girl’s susceptibility to extremism. The book’s fragmented, collaging narrative draws together fairytale elements, glimpses of Fairoz’s thoughts, and pieces of dialogue. A folkloric representation of God and the devil acts as a counterpoint in the whole, touching on questions of morality. Fairoz is a powerful portrayal of human vulnerability.
