These Fine Lines: Poems of Restraint and Abandon

Itisha Giri (Editor)

An anthology of poems written by young female Nepali poets. It features poems that explore their desire and struggle for freedom within the restraints of Nepali society. These poetic voices, sometimes chiming, sometimes angry, and sometimes trembling in a soft song, explicate the intricacies of the lives of Nepali women: their spaces, their sufferings, and their quiet, personal pleasures. This is an important anthology, giving space and expression to the young women of Nepal.
