"How to Cure a Ghost" is a poignant collection of poems by Fariha Róisín that traces a woman's journey from self-loathing to self-acceptance, from confusion to clarity, and from bitterness to forgiveness. This collection offers a deep insight into the challenges faced by a young, queer, Muslim femme in a complex world of identities. Róisín addresses her difficult relationship with her mother, her experiences with platonic and romantic disappointments, as well as the cognitive dissonance arising from her multifaceted identity. The poems are both personal and universal, inviting readers to engage with themes of identity, belonging, and emotional healing. The author, who lives in Brooklyn, uses her voice to explore the intersections of race, queerness, and cultural heritage, conveying a powerful message of hope and change.
