Second Daily Star Anthology - Non-Fiction
The Daily Star literature page, in order to promote English-language writing among Bangladeshis, will publish an anthology of non-fiction writing. Bangladeshi writers/authors/translators, plus our readers, are invited to send in their contributions for consideration. Themes and contents must deal broadly with Bangladesh, or with Bangladeshi life, whether here or abroad. Submissions should be limited to 2500-3000 words, though this condition can be relaxed in the case of outstanding efforts. High-grade translations will also be considered. Translators should send in the original Bangla if they are to be considered. Submissions should be sent electronically as Word attachments to starliterature@thedailystar.net or by snail mail to The Literary Editor, The Daily Star, 19 Karwan Bazar, Dhaka-1215. All submissions must be clearly marked 'For Anthology' (in case of electronic submission on the subject line). Only Bangladeshis need submit. We specially welcome submissions from outside Dhaka, as well as humorous pieces dealing with the lighter side of life. The last date for submission is May 15, 2007. --The Literary Editor N O T E DO NOT send poems or short stories. An example of non-fiction has been published above.
