Songs of Aligarh: poems on nature and culture
₹400.00
Sami Rafiq is a professor of English at Aligarh Muslim University in Aligarh, India. She is also an author and translator. Her stories, poems, and translations have been published in leading literary journals and magazines in India and overseas. Her concern for the environment is reflected in her academic work, including her modules on the Swayam portal. Rafiq’s first collection of poems, Woman in the Trees: Poems on Climate and Nature (2022, Hawakal), received rave reviews. Songs of Aligarh: Poems on Nature and Culture is her second collection of poems, intensifying her quest to voice the syllables of the non-human in her city, Aligarh. In this collection, she eloquently versifies the environment, culture, and pristine worlds in AMU — how one describes the ethos of AMU, its sher-shairi, its heady cups of Dhaba tea, its romantic mehfils, its iconic achkan and sherwani, and its unique ambience of harmony and camaraderie.
