The poem about the poet undefeated by the overbearing stereotypes. Not to forget Urdu preventing the poet from abandoning her courtyards.</p><p> </p><p>The Brown Anthology series is about historical, present and future Brown, without the need or prerequisite to explain, justify or create art to suit the perception of Brown. The first theme is language and it features poems, short stories, an essay and illustrations by South Asian writers and artists from India, Pakistan, the UK and the USA.</p><p>This is a declaration to push the boundaries of literature.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>'The dominant culture would have you believe that the only valid poetry is classical poetry. This is a trick. Let's apply that same thinking to music. So then the only valid music would be classical?...Please.<br /> There is not one type of poetry but poetries, each informed by specific historical and cultural signifiers. Poetry reflects cultures. It is in this light I applaud the arrival of 'The Brown Anthology' comprehensively reflective in it's diversity and inclusivity.'</p><p>- Roger Robinson (winner of the T. S. Eliot Prize 2019)</p><br>
