Middle Class Representation in Contemporary South Asian English Poetry

South Asian poetry in English, because of the geopolitics and cultural developments of the region, tends to privilege the middle class in its representation. British colonization and Orientalism, bred several generations of middle class in the Subcontinent, and this class appropriated English language for artistic expression. When middle class elements are woven into poetic product, distinct patterns emerge. This book is a study of those patterns.
