| book description |

Hybridity, Identity, and Belonging in the Poetry of Moniza Alvi and Choman Hardi: Writing Home explores how contemporary British poets navigate the complex and often contested concept of ‘home’. Focusing on the works of Moniza Alvi and Choman Hardi, as well as other contemporary poets, this book examines how ‘home’ is constructed through language, memory, and lived experience, existing as both a physical place and an evolving process of becoming. Drawing on postcolonial theory, diasporic perspectives, and literary representations of place, the book investigates themes of exile, hybridity, and the intersections of personal and national identity. In doing so, it asks: how does poetry articulate the complexities of belonging in a world increasingly shaped by migration, displacement, and shifting cultural identities?
