Book excerpt: The present anthology Indian English Poetry: A Critical Evaluation is an endeavour to shed some light on some major Indian English poets. It combines and discusses poets of two generations. From older generation of poets like Henry Derozio, Toru Dutt, Rabindranath Tagore to younger generation of poets like Nissim Ezekiel, Jayanta Mahapatra, Eunice de Souza, Gieve Patel, Kamala Das and many others, all have critically been studied in this anthology. Along with a brief and critical introduction about the origin and development of Indian English poetry, the anthology also covers an interview with modern Indian poet Keki N. Daruwalla. The anthology will be helpful to provide study materials for both students and teachers alike.
