December 2020 at the Global Literature in Libraries Initiative is ‘South Asian Literature in Translation’ month. As the host of the Desi Books podcast, I was thrilled to be asked to share South Asian books in English translation for the entire month. What a feast to assemble and present to readers around the world. And what a joy to share these personal, enriching pleasures with all of you. I’m thankful to Karen Van Drie for this opportunity and trust. And I’m grateful to all the South Asian translators who have contributed their works and thoughts that will be shared throughout the month here.
