Declared a 'contemporary masterpiece' on its original publication in 2007, Sascha Aurora Akhtar's debut collection is a work of post-modern Gothic.
Its poems are concerned with mythology, meaning-making, the magical and mystical; a grimoire is a magic textbook or spellbook. Akhtar's writing skilfully blends archaic languages with contemporary slang, wordplay, and esoteric vocabularies to create a language of its own.
