Indian Literature, Sahitya Akademi’s bimonthly journal, is India’s oldest and the only journal of its kind featuring translations in English of poetry, fiction, drama and criticism from twenty-three Indian languages besides original writing in English. There is hardly any significant Indian author who has not been featured in the pages of this journal that has completed 55 years of service to the cause of Indian Literature.
                    

Offering a feast of literature with features like “What are you doing in the Attic?”, “Writings from the Margins”, “Young Life”, Second Tradition”, novel excerpts, travelogue, book reviews, author interviews, tributes to writers, photo/graphic essay, Indian Literature is also highly valued as a source of reference in India and abroad and is a must for libraries and for discriminating readers, researchers and students of creative and critical literature.
