The Poetry of South Asia collection demonstrates the breadth and quality of English-language poetry from the region, featuring some of the most influential poets of the past alongside contemporary voices who continue that rich literary conversation today.

This collection celebrates and honours canonical poets who also write in English and have helped define modern South Asian poetry. The featured poets come from many places and contexts around the world, and our aim is to bring their voices to life while beginning to archive the vast and vital imaginative legacy they share.
