Further information: Goan literature and List of fiction writers from Goa, India

Goa is currently India's smallest state on the west coast, and its writers have written in many diverse languages. Poetry is a small field in the region, and this page makes an attempt to acknowledge those who have contributed to the field. It includes those listed below who have contributed to poetry in and from Goa.

Comments on poetry in and from Goa

Peter Nazareth, the editor of the first anthology in English of Goan writing, comments:[1] "I found some of the literature very strange, particularly poetry written before the fifties. The subjects seemed hopelessly romantic, the treatment archaic, the psyche concerned with the irrelevant. Was it just because I was out of touch? Or was it that being involved with the exciting, creative, literature of a whole continent, Africa, my responses were sound: that Goan writers were trapped in a deep, airless well?"

Goa Today, the monthly magazine from the region, has an article[2] on Goan poets in English.
