The Poets and Editors of the Anthology, Indivisible: Contemporary South Asian American Poetry (2010)
The Holloway Series in Poetry Indivisible: Contemporary South Asian American Poetry (University of Arkansas Press, 2010) is the first anthology to bring together American poets with roots in Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. Since Ralph Waldo Emerson first drew inspiration from the Sanskrit epic poem Bhagvad Gita, the poetic traditions of South Asia and the United States have been intertwined from Eliot to the Beats. A seminal anthology, Indivisible brings us up to date, presenting the work of contemporary American poets who trace their roots back to Pakistan, India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and who are rewriting the cultural and literary landscape of America today. POETS/EDITORS: Ravi Chandra, Summi Kaipa, Tanuja Mehrotra, Pireeni Sundaralingam, and graduate student poet, Swati Rana. holloway.english.berkeley.edu/
