The main poem collected in this volume deals with the myth of the Devi fighting with Mahisha, so as to try a modern small purana, one viewed by Western eyes. Shorter poems explore the theme of love and women in a metaphysical way, after the manner of traditional Urdu poetry. More poems are about hybridisation, particularly in food and mixed language.
