Collegiality and Other Ballads: feminist poems by male and non-binary allies
₹450.00
We believe feminism is a way of life and requires instillation in a nation’s cultural memory. Men’s involvement in feminist politics builds a web of solidarity for empathetic futures. This collection, very much in tune with the third and fourth waves of feminism, puts the onus onto those who are historically and structurally in socially privileged positions of power: men, white or upper caste. Instead of usurping the emotional labor of survivors, these reflective pieces quantify social uplift basis male action and intention. The anthology also discusses issues that concern Dalit, Indigenous and Queer poets, issues that patriarchal society and elected governments invisibilize as non-existent.

Press Reviews
Having read these poems, I take heart that men can write about women, write as women, no less about the horrors men have created for women, horrors which men must own. I cannot think of more intricate, beautiful poetry of pain and guilt. Do read and be stunned by the strange and painful aesthetic violence and inequity can create. – Saikat Majumdar
