Reading Contemporary South Asian Literature
As a school of criticism, the central argument in Postcolonial studies revolves around dismantling the dominant narrative of colonial or imperial history. A colonization process not only captures the native people and culture but their lands too. Proper reading of postcolonial theory would be by understanding the epistemology of colonized environment or vice-versa. Even after decolonization the ideology of imperialism is persistent in native memory and thought. An embeddedness in native psyche not only nurtures imperialism but manifests them with the footprints of colonial masters. In postcolonial countries the discourse of social and economic justice is deeply rooted in ecology. As a conseq...
Writing Woman Anthology
Writing Woman Anthology: Poetry and Visual Art, Volume 3 is the most representative of the three books in this anthology as it has a balance of Asian and African writers and artists. Each poet and artist tackled what it means to be a woman in Africa and Asia. The anthology has 20 Chinese poets writing in Chinese language and accompanying translations into English, 1 poet from Inner Mongolia, 2 from Turkey, 4 from India and the diasporas, and 23 African artists and poets from Zimbabwe, South Africa, Botswana, Kenya, Uganda, Nigeria, and Ghana, all dissecting woman’s agency, existence and identity in the religious and cultural limitations of the 21st century Africa and Asia.
Arise Out of the Lock
"So often South Asian poetry feels to me like a body with severed limbs, all inaccessible to each other. This anthology is both healing of that and a recognition; with the very force of its thought and its omnivorous cosmopolitanism, it will defy every stereotype you try to bring to it. A project like this would be essential for any translator to take up, but as a poet Nabina Das goes beyond the call and makes it sing." - Vivek Narayanan (Author of Life and Times of Mr S & Professor of Creative Writing, George Mason University) "Deftly translated into an English with fittingly South Asian inflections, this timely anthology surprises and delights. Certain themes and imagery traditionally code...
Pandemic of Perspectives
This volume brings together academics, activists, social work practitioners, poets, and artists from different parts of the world during the Covid-19 pandemic. It sheds light on how the pandemic has exposed the inequities in society and is shaping social institutions, affecting human relationships, and creating new norms with each passing day.

It prioritises the realm of imagination, creativity, and affect in understanding social formations and in shaping societies beyond the positivist app...
Centrepiece
This book brings you a wealth of stories, in words and images, from a part of India known as the Northeast, a term that is widely contested for the ways in which it homogenizes a region of great diversity. It is also a term that has come to be a marker of identity and solidarity by many who are of the region. Here, 21 writers and artists look at the idea of ‘work’ — from street hawking to beer brewing, from mothering to dung collection — and describe their lives or those of others with humour and compassion. Parismita Singh’s wonderful compilation of the works of women asks: what are the different ways of telling a story? What if we were to attempt these tellings through poetry and portraits and essays, older traditions like textile art and applique and new genres like hashtag poetry tapped into a smartphone? Where would it take us, what would the world look like?

Open Zero
In Sophia Naz's poems, one has the sense of being out in the open-of our beings fermenting as we read, of looking back from time to time, to check whether we are alone. We are never alone-there are the ancestors, both Naz's intellectual predecessors and ours. And there are the poems, always quivering, gently "skyclad".' -Sumana Roy 'These new poems by Sophia Naz are marked by deep music, the strong beating of a battered but indomitable heart, the percussion of a tidal bore of meticulously crafted emotion. This is an apostrophe to loss marked by the optimism inherent in poetry, for Naz's passion for language goes way deeper than the anagrams and play of post-modernism, drawing the reader into a new territory of passionate rediscovery and retrieval.' -Jerry Pinto
