A new poem by Paranda writer Samman, published by The Candyman’s Trumpet.
The Issue’s Curator, Shikha Sawhney Lamba reflects on her selection:
“This issue stands as a powerful testament: even in the face of relentless attempts by this regime to silence them, Afghan women and girls continue to raise their voices. They write, create, and assert their presence in the world, refusing to be erased by the unimaginable hardships they endure.
Within this issue, you will discover the poetry of twenty-five Afghan women and girls: twelve writing from within Afghanistan and thirteen from the diaspora.”
