Asha Lul Mohamud Yusuf Author

Although Asha Lul Mohamud Yusuf has lived in exile in the UK for 20 years, she is fast emerging as one of the most outstanding Somali poets, as well as a powerful woman poet in a literary tradition still largely dominated by men. The Sea Migrations (Somali title: Tahriib), her first full-length book of poems, was published by Bloodaxe Books with The Poetry Translation Centre in November 2017.
