Habibullah-Siraji

HABIBULLAH SIRAJEE
(31 December, 1948, Bangladesh)

A leading poet of today’s Bangladesh, Habibullah Sirajee is currently President of Jatiya Kabita Parishad (National Poetry Council), widely known in SAARC countries and beyond for its unique poetry festival held on Feb 1 and 2 every year with participation of some hundred poets from home and abroad. Having more than forty published titles to his credit, he also writes fiction, essays and literary critiques quite frequently. As a poet he has mastered a diction of his own with uncommon imageries, word-associations along with different brand of syntax patterns. He excels in transmitting poetic ambiguities in most of his poetic texts grown out of contcrete or abstract contents. He is undoubtedly a poet of rare excellence voicing the essence of our time.
