"“A BAME critic is far less likely to read such poets as straightforwardly authentic – a favoured construction of white reviewers often”, [Sandeep Parmar] told me when I interviewed her for the website Write Out Loud. “It is tiring and disappointing and sometimes infuriating to see poets of colour read so simplistically, without enough [of the] attention to literariness and aesthetic choices that white poets are afforded.”"
