The central matter of this daring new collection is the story of Hagar, Abraham, and Sarah the ancestral feuding family of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.These poems delve into the Hajar story in Islam. They explore other figures from the Near Eastern heritage, such as Mary and Moses, and touch on figures from early Islam, such as Fatima and Aisha. Throughout, there is artful reconfiguring. Readers will find sequels and prequels to the traditional narratives, along with modernized figures claimed for contemporary conflicts.Hagar Poems is a compelling shakeup of not only Hagar s story but also of current roles of all kinds of women in all kinds of relationships."
