Book Synopsis
Are You Listening? is a journey of sound, sight and story. Blending poetry and memoir, the book explores intergenerational displacement, and speaks the truths of a woman who loses her innocence at a young age due to cultural inequity. Through the painful knocks of colonization, Zaynab Mohammed finds her freedom by leaning on the art of listening to herself, to others and to the earth. Are You Listening? is a carefully woven tapestry of transforming pain into beauty, into magic, and into possibility.
