Joy Goswami (/dʒɔe̯ ɡoʃwami/ goh-SHWAH-mee; born 10 November 1954) is an Indian poet, novelist, and short story writer. Goswami writes in Bengali and is widely considered as one of the most important poets in the post-Jibanananda Das era of Bengali poetry. His work addresses ordinary lives, marriage struggles, relationships with women, and the act of writing. He is lauded for his linguistically inventive poetry, its semi-abstract imagery, and strong lyrical appeal. Goswami’s work is acclaimed in Bengal and India but remains obscure abroad, despite some translations by the 1981 Nobel laureate Roald Hoffmann. His poetry collections, short stories and novels have won several awards, including two Ananda Puraskar, the 1997 Paschimbanga Bangla Akademi Award for Bajra Bidyut Bharti Khata, the 2000 Sahitya Akademi Award for his poetry collection Pagali Tomar Sange (Crazy girl, with you), the 2012 Banga Bibhushan, the 2017 Moortidevi Award for Du Dondo Phowara Matro In 1976, he joined Desh as a staff writer and later served as the magazine's poetry editor until leaving for Sangbad Pratidin in 2007. In addition to his literary works, his interests include aphorisms on art, theatre, Indian classical music, letters, and cricket.
