Anis Mojgani

Science, birds, Billy the Kid, and lots of feathers surround The Feather Room. This is Anis Mojgani's follow up to his Pushcart-nominated work, Over the Anvil We Stretch , where the poet further explores storytelling in poetic form while traveling farther down the path of magic realism, endowing his tales with a greater sense of fantasy and brightness. The work recounts loss and heartbreak while discovering lightness and beauty on the other side. Throughout the book, Mojgani opens tree trunks to reveal chandeliers. He leads us through the rooms inside himself, using poems to part curtains and paint walls. He is lifting windows to let the fantasy indoors.
