About this title

Synopsis

In Our Translated World brings together for the first time, in a Tamil-English bilingual edition, poems written in Tamil from around the world. Since modernity shapes contemporary perspectives in important ways, the struggle between modernity and tradition looms large in this volume. Taken together, these poems offer an exciting and insightful representation of the contemporary global Tamil experience.
