One aspect to admire...is King's analysis of individual poems.' -- Journal of Indian Writing in English 'When [the book] first appeared, it almost became like a Bible on the subject, the only worthwhile reference tool [to] dip into [for] trivia on poetry written in English by Indians.' -- Biblio Zusammenfassung This edition is a revision of the classic, which has become the standard work on the subject. Five chapters covering the 1990s have been added with an updated chronlogy. These discuss a number of more recent poets, along with one chapter on the late Agha Shadid Ali.
