While exposing the limits of witness, "I scarcely fathom the howl," the poet compels our attention (and hopefully our action) in these vivid, reflective poems. -Catherine Anderson, author of Everyone I Love Immortal Speech in an Age of Certainty is a colorful collection of timely pieces by J. Khan that tackles police brutality, identity, history of our sins and finding balance. Khan offers reflective, lyrical poems that question one's place in the world. A lovely collection that captures the voices of many who are silenced -Rosalyn Spencer, editor Rigorous Magazine
