| Summary: | An avant garde, post 9/11 world, from the perspective of a young Muslim New Yorker. It's a place where Coney Island meets Mars, where hijabi girls are punk rock dervishes, where identity salesmen count pigeons at insane asylums as a cream cheese conspiracy brews in gitmo, where rich boys pay to be Muslim for a day, where the transgendered are holy and where the bacon is halal. Kaan offers up five urban Sufi tales in the swirling graffiti of Brooklyn. |
