Tuhin Das is a Bengali writer currently living in the U.S. He is from Barishal, a city in south-central Bangladesh. He was involved in the little magazine movement in his country, and edited several literary magazines. His poetry criticism, short stories, and opinion columns have been widely published in the past twenty years in Bangladesh and West Bengal, India. He is the author of eight books of poetry in his native language. Critics consider him a significant poet of Generation Zero, who began publishing in 2000. His life was deeply impacted by groups who limit freedom of expression. Carnegie Mellon University invited him to Pittsburgh, PA as a visiting scholar, and City of Asylum invited him to join their writer sanctuary program. He left his home country, Bangladesh, in 2016. Das’s work has appeared in The Logue Project’s Home Language, Words Without Borders, The Bare Life Review, Immigrant Report, The Offing, and Epiphany.
