Explore the potent force of Siraiki poetry as resistance in postcolonial Pakistan. This essential study uncovers how writers from South Punjab transformed Sufi-inspired verses into powerful acts of political activism and dialogue. It critically examines identity politics, the impacts of neo-colonisation, and a state philosophy that often overlooks ethnic and linguistic diversity in favour of religious dogma. A must-read for academics, students of South Asian literature, and enthusiasts of cultural resistance and postcolonial studies.
