Thali Katori: An Anthology of Scottish South Asian Poetry

5/5 ( ratings)

Thali Katori is a feast of many flavours. Thali, literally means a plate on which a selection of many dishes is served. Katori signifies the bowls which accompany the thali. Together, the dishes are all different, but they complement each other, bringing out each other s flavours and unique identities.

Featuring poems and extracts from writers such as Sir Walter Scott, Vikram Seth and Hugh MacDiarmid, Thali Katori is a collection of poetry and prose that celebrates the difference and the diversity of the Indian sub-continent and Scotland. Through a diverse collection of poetry that explores the unique history of the relationship between India and Scotland and the ways in which it has affected the lives of many since, both Scottish and Indian writers alike are brought together in this anthology to create a feast of appreciation for the diversity of culture and identity of the two nations.

Thali Katori provides a platform for a multitude of voices... if one is searching for a synergy then it surely must be that of the experience of the Diaspora and the formation of attachments to the Motherland." Amrit Khan
