The Mappila Verses is a collection of poems that take you to a different experience, may be for the first time in English poetry written in India. Weaving history with the contemporary, the poems in this collection are of despire, grief, varied facets of violence, identity assertion and crisis of the cross generational experiences of the Muslims in India. In a time when their very existence is questioned, The Mappila Verses is a memory against forgetting and marks an identity of resistance and poetic assertion. This collection also includes the first Mala poem, a genre in the Mappila songs ever written in English.
