Full description for The Eastern Boroughs

• This is his fifth collection of poetry, containing work written over the last six years. As well as editing an anthology of South Asian literature, 'Stories from South Asia' (Oxford University Press, 1988), he has contributed articles reflecting his personal experience of breakdown and psychoanalysis to 'Poets on Writing' (Macmillan, 1992) and more recently to various journals, including the London Review of Books, fragmente, Scintilla and others. A number of the poems in 'The Eastern Boroughs' likewise express a concern with consciousness, the sense of self, and how that self is constituted in writing.
