I am familiar with the publication. (There is a dot under the ‘H’ to make it pronounced Chakirah).

It is a somewhat off-the-books Orthodox – Mo-orthodox magazine, since they welcome views from all over the spectrum, including very left-wing. Their purpose of this is to add innuendo to the letters to the editor, which many a time make a most interesting reading. Having said this, many articles are head-on in concurrence with the Yeshiva Oilam. Rav Hershel Shacter shlit”a writes an article in one volume destroying conservadox practices.

On the other hand, most contraversial is an article from Rabbi Natan Slifkin attempting to prove that Rashi was a corporealist.

I would ask my rav before visually placing the book on my bookshelf.
