In his follow up work to Who Are You?, Ok Waleed explores the many faces of relationships between women and men, mothers and sons, sisters and brothers, girlfriends and boyfriends in 21st-century life. Fundamental to this exploration is the theme of use: how we use each other to fill an emotional need, and the chaos, euphoria, and regret that can follow from it. The present collection asks the reader to play a double role, envisioning both the perspective of those who use others, and who are in turn used. By employing a combination of rich life experience and insightful imagination, revealing honesty and creative wordplay, Waleed captures in a single work the tragedy, beauty, love, and heartache shared between the sexes. We come to see in ourselves the many faces of the lover, the player, the user, and the used, the rejected, the accepted, among many others, inviting us to be honest with ourselves and ask: have we really considered the question, What about her?

Paperback. Condition: New. Limited Edition. 134pp. Octavo [22.7cm]. Purple illustrated wraps. From Publisher: Waleed continued this poetic analysis of life in this insightful work that is as brutally honest as it is composed. If forgiveness was a major theme in his first work, the damage we do to each other that requires forgiveness consumes this follow up. Though relationships between men and women in the 21st century are so often characterized by using each other for our own selfish gratification, Waleed turns also to the truly loving relations between a mother and son, a wife and husband, which now shine all the brighter for their selflessness. Love is found here in all its messy complexity, and it is in this spirit of complexity that Waleed invites us to ask of ourselves, What about her? Seller Inventory # 60533
