When Jewher Ilham's father, Ilham Toti, was detained at the Beijing airport in February 2013 on charges of "separatism," Jewher had two choices: she could stay in China or fly to America alone. Jewher boarded the plane for Indiana and began a new life apart from her family and was half a world away when her father was sentenced to life in prison. Through a series of interviews with novelist Adam Braver and scholar Ashley Barton, Jewher recounted her father's nightmare and her own transition from student to eloquent advocate for the Uyghur people. The resulting book, Jewher Ilham: A Uyghur's Fight to Free Her Father, is an intimate, exclusive portrait that U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown calls "proof that Jewher and her people will not be silenced."
From Isa Kamari comes a masterful tale of success and failure, which has been translated for the first time into English by Alfian Sa’at, his debut work of translation. A successful architect visits the new skyscraper he designed. As he climbs the tower with Ilham, his clerk of works, he reflects upon his life and spiritual journey in an increasingly materialistic world. Memories of a dark past plague him as he struggles to reach the top, which are woven into the narrative as a series of fables and elliptical digressions, mirroring his own increasingly fractured state of mind.
On December 30, 2016, in Jakarta, seven strangers—Adam, Rian, Randy, Huda, Ilham, Syarif, and Rudy—meet and form a team they call the Rising Stars.

Th e Chasing Glance appears to be a new venture with a form quite new and alien in the realm of English Poetry. Th e poet sings poignantly and vehemently in his love poems imploring earnestly for the reunion of love, with a predominant note of subjectivity, no doubt. However, it is his other poems, the Nature Poems and other contemplative poems in which the poet has come out with a prophetic voice to the society at large, seeking to reaffi rm the values for decency relationship, loyalty and modesty. It is this which renders gravity and sublimity to his work in spite of his simple and straight forward approach. M.A English, Universty of Peshawar Sirajul Haq.
