The first half delves into her childhood in Iran, marked by the upheaval of the revolution, while the second half follows her journey as a young woman in America and her current residence in Scotland. Through these poignant poems, Lotfis poses profound questions about the essence of coming from a different place, the baggage we carry with us as we embark on new adventures, and the process of settling into a new home and finding solace. Recognized with the Poetry Book Society Special Commendation, this remarkable collection showcases Lotfis' exceptional talent and offers a profound reflection on the human experience of displacement and belonging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 164g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 157 x 234 x 8 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781780376394\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marjorie Lotfi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44668054601978,"sku":"9781780376394","price":8.57,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1697821853572_book.jpg?v=1697968763","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-wrong-person-to-ask-9781780376394","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
