A wide-ranging contemporary South Asian poetry anthology—the first of its kind at this scale and vision—showcasing voices across borders, languages, and generations, gathered in one urgent, resonant volume.

Earth and Embers assembles contemporary poems that ‘capture the quicksand temperament’ of South Asia today—across volatile politics, ecological precarity, pandemic grief, and everyday tenderness. Conceived in 2019–20 and sharpened by the years since, the anthology places English originals alongside a dedicated translations section, foregrounding multiplicity over a single ‘representative’ narrative. Poets write of borders and belonging, exile and desire, the digital and the ancestral; the result is a chorus that resists erasure and imagines futures with clarity and care.
