The seventh-most spoken language in the world, Bengali is home to
some of the most distinctive poetry ever written anywhere. Starting
with the later poems of Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore, there
has been a long and continuous line of modern poetry in the
language, its span ranging from lyrical love poems to passionate
political verse, from expressions of existential anguish to
psychological explorations. This volume celebrates over one hundred
years of this poetry from the two Bengals-the eastern Indian state
and the country of Bangladesh- represented by over fifty different
poets and a multitude of forms and styles.
