Saira Viola is an acclaimed novelist, poet, and song lyricist. From her early poetic experimentation with language, image and sound a technique she has dubbed sonic scatterscript to her novelistic ventures into the dark, absurd world of contemporary crime fiction, Viola’s work pulses with iconoclastic brio that mischievously blasts the golden calves of our times. Literary Heavyweight Benjamin Zephaniah, has praised her ‘twisted beautiful imagination,’ and polymathic genius, Heathcote Williams (RIP) her ‘hypnotic explosive', writing style. Twice Nominated For Best of The Net 2017 Pushcart Prize Nominee 2017 Rascal Magazine. Viola’s poetry collection Flowers of War and Don't Shoot The Messenger debuted at the New York Poetry Festival, published by UB Press.
