Susheila Nasta

Emeritus Professor of Modern and Contemporary Literature, Queen Mary University of London

I’m the Founding Editor of Wasafiri and a Emeritus Professor of Modern and Contemporary Literature at Queen Mary University of London.

I’ve written on Caribbean, Black, British and South Asian writing, particularly in Britain, and I’m finishing a biography called The Bloomsbury Indians.
