Bad Machine

This book-length poem is set at the time of the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947, when thousands of people were killed in civil unrest and millions displaced, with families later split between the two countries. Inspired by family history, Moniza Alvi weaves a deeply personal story of fortitude and courage, as well as tragic loss, in this powerful 20 part work. At the Time of Partition is Moniza Alvi's first new poetry book since her T.S. Eliot Prize shortlisted collection Europa, published in 2008.
