Poetry Translation Centre
The Poetry Translation Centre believe that English poetry has yet to engage with the rich poetic traditions of the many languages now spoken in the UK; for Islamic communities in particular, poetry is a particularly significant art form. Their work aims to redress that deficiency.
By making their poetry at home in English, the centre aims to celebrate the cultures of communities that are frequently neglected and abused in the UK, inviting them to play a vital role in British cultural life.
