"“Beauty is a province of poetry but more importantly it
is a province of truth. In her latest book Meher Pestonji
is telling us the truth. She writes as one of whom
Wallace Stevens would call a ’necessary angel’. She has us
confront the pain and the ugliness so we cannot help but
empathise and motivates us to take action. Meher offers
us poems to make us feel so we know what to think.”
- Robert Whelan, Poet Laureate of Rockport, Massachusettes, and
Convenor of the Rockport Poetry Festival, New York."
