Shasta Hanif Ali

Shasta Hanif Ali is a Pakistani Scottish writer and poet. Her writing delicately navigates the legacy of race and heritage; where themes of memory and language interlace and disrupt. Shasta’s writing has been published in the Association for Scottish Literature, Federation of Writers Scotland, Sidhe Press and Our Time Is A Garden (IASH), among others. Recently Shasta was nominated as one of Edinburgh’s 100 trail blazing women past and present, and honoured in a mural which exhibited across Edinburgh.
