Present preoccupations

Currently, I am on leave till the summer of 2027. Hence, the reading group project where we read and discuss environmental humanities texts is on a hiatus.

I have been working on an essay on Arvind Krishna Mehrotra and thinking about Agha Shahid Ali’s poetry and its relationship to a postcolonial apocalypse.

Previously…

Defended my dissertation in the summer of 2024.

Guest-edited an issue of Kairos: A Journal of Critical Symposium. The issue is here.

Submitted my doctoral dissertation and ran in the general direction of India for a month where I lost my phone and went off the grid, in a sense.

Wrote something on Kabir (ask me for a PDF, if you want to read it)
