Sundial by Anika Jhalani

Part poetry, part lyric essay, Sundial is about friendship turning into infatuation, and the desperation that accompanies unrequited love. Written with lush language and playful breaks of the fourth wall, the collection meditates on time, youth, and art’s role in shaping reality.

 

Anika Jhalani’s poems are rich, sensual and engaging. The reader awakens in a dream of language as the poet reveals secrets: “My body a tangerine. I peel skillfully. Pull apart each wedge, / citrus bursts, streams down legs, I know how to do this. I know how to / writhe.” This collection is filled with exploring, and unanticipated findings.
