The 25th volume of the “Xalq Əmanəti” (People’s Heritage) project is dedicated to South Azerbaijani poetry. The book brings together selected poems, long poems, and ghazals by 50 Azerbaijani poets born in South Azerbaijan, who represent various literary trends and movements and who created works from the early 20th century up to the present day, covering a wide range of themes and genres.
Alongside the great poets whose names are firmly inscribed in the history of Azerbaijani literature, the collection also includes the works of talented young contemporary writers. Conceived as a means of presenting the literary panorama of a united Azerbaijan in the 20th and 21st centuries, the book “South Azerbaijani Poetry: Selections” also reflects our turbulent and complex history.
