Tarik Maliq

Pakistan-born, Vancouver-based Tāriq Malik works across poetry, fiction, and art to distill immersive and original narratives. He claims his working English is a borrowed tongue inflected with Punjabi, Urdu, Hindi, and Arabic, and he writes intensely from his place in the shadows of a world in flux.

Tāriq Malik has authored a collection of short stories, Rainsongs of Kotli, TSAR publications, 2004; a novel, Chanting Denied Shores, Bayeux Arts, 2010; and poetry published under Unmooring the Komagata Maru, UBC Press, 2019. His recent poetry publications by Caitlin Press include Exit Wounds, 2022, and Blood of Stone, 2024.
