About

Writing across borders, languages, and traditions.

The Review publishes work that is formally ambitious, intellectually serious, and attentive to the texture of lived experience. It is interested in South Asia not as a single subject, but as a vast and contested field of languages, memories, migrations, histories, and imaginations.

We also welcome work with no direct connection to the region. Our aim is to build a publication with a distinct sensibility rather than a narrow geographic boundary.
