Humour, sarcasm, and a perpetual awe when witnessing the Divine, are visible in her poetry. In “Boom of Prayer”, the poet writes, “You rule on the whole universe.” The collection is published by Notion Press. It is priced at Rupees 149, which seems to be a just price. The binding is soft paperback, glossy. The cover design is average and the typography is also not up to the mark. The publisher has also excluded the content page, which makes it a bit difficult for the readers to search for the particular poems in the collection. However, since it is a 92 page book, this does not pose a serious problem.
With her pleasant rendering and imaginative verse, Jabeen marks a space for herself in the landscape of Indian English poetry. She is a writer who was selected by The Holistic Pine as “Top Five Indian English Writers who Inspire in 2023” and “Notable Four Writers You should Look forward to”.
