Written by a Bangladeshi male author, Shihab Ahmed Tuhin, it centers women’s experiences of assault and objectification across South Asia, the Middle East, the West, and institutional spaces (classrooms, workplaces, temples, police stations, factories), while also turning inward to male vulnerability, regret, and despair. The book’s power lies in its refusal to look away. The long title poem functions as a cumulative indictment: street harassment, familial betrayal, academic and corporate predation, deepfakes by would-be progressive law students, caste violence, migrant domestic worker abuse, child rape by trusted figures, and the collusion of silence. It moves between Dhaka streets, village cowsheds, Savar factories, Riyadh villas, Guantanamo, and Western feminist panels with a deliberate, almost forensic accumulation of detail. The effect is exhausting by design—the reader is made to feel the relentlessness of the “alphabet.” Later poems shift registers. সাহিত্যপ্রেমী পাঠকদের জন্য এটি একটি সহায়ক সংযোজন। বইপোকার সংগ্রহে বইটি রয়েছে।
