This anthology, published to celebrate the UK India Year of Culture in what is a close historic association of 70 years, commemorates Scots who went to India and wrote about their encounter with India and South Asians who came her and live and write between their two worlds. This is the first anthology of poetry that brings together the voices of poets from Scotland and India who have explored their roots and routes, the elsewhere and the somewhere, the ‘here’ and ‘there’ in their diverse stories of departures and arrivals.
