matt reviewed The veiled suite by Agha, Shahid Ali
Review of 'The veiled suite' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
This was my favorite collection from the poetry class I took senior year with (great name) Langdon "Lanny" Hammer. Ali was my first encounter with the beautiful ghazal poem, and his Lenox Hill makes me cry. I read it to my mom and she was crying. It's painfully beautiful, and my favorite poem.
