Confluence

Confluence magazine published an article this summer about the India: Through Fresh Eyes programme of which Lit Sutra is the British Council's legacy work.

An introduction from the Confluence editor, Joe Nathan:

"Confluence, a monthly magazine of South Asian Perspectives, now in its 7th year of publication in London, seeks to meld the different communities known as 'South Asian' living in the UK and the world over through the pursuit of creative writing, drama, art and a political discourse, enriching not only of themselves but of the mainstreams of their societies as well.
 
The London Book Fair with its India Market Focus was that grand opportunity that came the way of this publication to forge firm links not only with emerging new writers and authors from the sub continent but for the first time to have access to the riches that lie in the creative works from that region in languages other than English."
