H.b. Johar

Arriving at the Throne of Love H.b. Johar

This anthology contains profoundly meaningful poems that were penned over a period of more than three decades by H. B. Johar, also famously known with his real name Johar Buang, a Sufi Poet. This anthology of poetry takes readers on a journey into the very heart of man with a uniquely different approach to the theme of love that is great and universal. Johar's poems reflected man's challenging life in relation to the Creator and how that divine connection serves as a stronghold for man to search for values, the truth and peace. Destructive phenomena such as military aggression and forest fires are also integrated in some of his poems. Johar's poems displayed strength in the use of words and phrases that were carefully selected to give a fresh meaning which had significantly contributed to a new trend and form in the realm of poetry writing in Singapore.
