Blurb of the book with Anglophone poetry from Nepalese poets

Wanderings: An Anthology of Anglophone Nepali Diaspora Poetry is a groundbreaking collection that brings together the distinct voices of poets who trace their roots to Nepal yet live, write, and dream in the diaspora. The anthology brings together a montage of cultural memory, displacement, and reimagined belonging, and paints a vivid portrait of the in-betweenness of diasporic lives. Melding global literary currents with Nepali cultural threads, the poems explore themes of home, nostalgia, exile, and identity, while experimenting with a range of forms—from free verse and sonnets to ghazals, lyrical meditations, and ekphrasis.

Through personal yet universal reflections, poets in Wanderings bridge the gap between local Nepali heritage and world literature, offering a clear entry point for those who wish to understand, teach, or experience the unfolding story of Nepali writing in English. This collection serves as both an intimate lens into Nepali culture and a testament to the power of poetry to transcend borders. The anthology, including a detailed introduction about Nepali diasporic writing, stands as an essential addition to the global poetry scene, ensuring that the Anglophone Nepali diasporic voices resonate in contemporary literary conversations everywhere.

The poets featured in this collection, listed alphabetically, include Pushparaj Acharya, Rohan Chhetri, Mukul Dahal, Tsering Wangmo Dhompa, Anuja Ghimire, Saraswoti Lamichhane, Mukahang Limbu, Nabin K. Chhetri, Samyak Shertok, and Y.B. Shakya.

Flaptekst van de roman over Sri Lanka van Devakathan

His Sacred Army is the first volume of a quintet of novels, Prison of Dreams, which tells the story of the growth of the armed struggle in Sri Lanka in the eighties. Through the experiences of its characters, who desire simply to go about their ordinary lives, the quintet depicts the suffering and separations caused by the political exploitation of ethnic differences leading to a full-fledged civil war.

His Sacred Army centres around the life of a young woman, Rajalakshmi, and the small island community of Nainativu to which she belongs. Nainativu is situated off the coast of Sri Lanka and is a site rich in folklore and religious significance. Rajalakshmi’s simple dreams of employment to support her struggling family and marriage to her childhood friend Suthan are threatened by malicious gossip in the village and civil conflict in the nation. Her beloved Suthan faces the dilemma of whether to follow his father’s political path of constitutional reform or to join the growing separatist movement.

Flaptekst van de verhalen uit Ghana van Elizabeth Allua Vaah

In Aakonu, a small village on the coast of Ghana, life is a constant tussle between the reality of the mundane and the superstitions presided over by the local priestess. In this setup, girls in their puberty can only look forward to marriage—often to men old enough to be their fathers and already with other wives.

Ahu, a young widow of eighteen, has no choice but to marry an older relative. But she refuses to have more children and returns to Aakonu. Overcoming all odds, she sets up a village eatery and raises her children, educating them all and finally sending the eldest girl, Bomo, to university. Her rebellion and success are an inspiration for the generation of girls growing up, to reach out beyond the limits imposed upon them by ancient tradition. Through these beautifully told, lyrical stories about herself, her daughter Bomo, the beautiful but tragic Ebela, and the childless Aso, and others, Ahu introduces us to her community, and the beliefs and customs that keep its families together but in the end also stifle its girls’ futures.

Flaptekst van de roman uit Togo van Edem Awumey

Kerim Neto returns to his hometown, a city on Africa’s Atlantic coast, to search for Mina, his former model, lover, and muse. But Mina has disappeared. He combs the streets and byways he has known, hoping to run into her. He questions his old friends from the theatre, with whom he and Mina had performed, mocking the country’s rulers, the army and dictators. But these friends have now joined the established order, become imams, preachers, and police informers. Which Mina will Kerim find? Will she be hidden behind a veil? Or sing of the risen Christ? Will she bear the marks of torture? In this novel the reader will discover an Africa where power lies in the hands of evil forces; a place that sells itself basely under the pretext of globalization; where religions compete for the minds of people with words of Allah or the Gospels, as the ancient Orishas look on. Mina Among the Shadows is a hymn to immutable desire, the power of beauty, and the courage of women.
