| “Geoff Fox’s poems are provocative syntheses of the political and the mystical. They politicise the deity of Islam and transform the speaker’s seemingly profane dialectical critiques into post-religious hymns. By invoking Allah in a blatantly contemporary language, Fox displays both a Sufi’s desire to establish a personal connection with the creator and a polemicist’s urge to speak out against perceived injustices.” _ Ali Alizadeh, Teheran born, Aussie internationalist poet, works in China |
