A Splintering “is an intriguing intervention in a literary tradition that has long privileged male desire and male transgression.” Iqra Shagufta Cheema reviews Dur e Aziz Amna’s second novel. @cheema.bsky.social worldliteraturetoday.org/2026/may/spl...

Hello Iqra @cheema.bsky.social your insightful analysis in Paindoo: Punjabi as an Accent is a powerful contribution to language politics in postcolonial Pakistan. You unravel the complexities of Punjabi identity with depth and nuance. A thought-provoking and necessary work!

Great work in Punjabi language studies is on its way after Alyssa Ayres. "Paindoo: Punjabi as an Accent" by Prof. Iqra Cheema @cheema.bsky.social is a really promising start to what I hope will be a broader project on language, class, politics, and aesthetics.
