Publisher Description: Editor R. W. Watkins presents the fifth issue of Contemporary Ghazals--the world's first English-language journal dedicated to the classical style of Asian poetry that lends it its title. No. 5 features ghazals by Steffen Horstmann, Denver Butson, John Philip Drury, Mike Alexander, Eugene A. Melino, Daniel Hales, William Dennis, Linda Umans, Leland Jamieson, and Watkins himself. It also contains Watkins's review of Tears of Blood: Selected Verses of Ghalib -- a 2014 volume of ghazals by the legendary 19th century Indian poet, translated from the Urdu by Sunil Uniyal. A selection from this volume is reprinted in the 'Classic Revisited' section. Contemporary Ghazals No. 6 is scheduled to appear in the winter of 2015-16. Print copies of Nos. 1 and 2 are still available from editor Watkins. |
