 Let the Conch Speak is a visually stunning book of poetry.

In her first collection of poetry, Nikhat Shameem writes of the costs and benefits of her long journeys and travels, some through force of circumstances and others though choice. Her journey through poetry is interwoven through other stories, those of her fathre's and her son's as they impacted on her life. The pomes span her life from Fiji, Aotearoa, England, Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Sudan and back to the Pacific.

They tell her story, a story we find, echoes our own life journeys. Let the Conch Speak will make a beautiful present and a coffee table book.
