Description: In Basmati Brown, Phinder Dulai achieves what few other writers have successfully managed: a genuine meeting of two cultures. Punjabi rhythms and speech patterns push their way into the English words of these poems: the author's roots reach down to the ancient history of his cultural motherland, yet he is equally at home in the new world culture he has known since he was a small child. The result is an unpredictable, exciting mix. "The two cultures aren't really integrated", wrote Richard Sutherland of Dulai's book Ragas from the Periphery, "but they do meet and sparks fly". In this brilliant second collection, Dulai's voice is even more assured as he handles some very volatile material, and the two cultures remain productively at odds.
