Biography

This is Mahbuba Sarker Shama, Senior Lecturer of the Department of English at the World University of Bangladesh. I work as a reviewer in many prestigious UK and Indian journals like

1. International Journal of Literature and Arts 

2. Asian Journal of Language, Literature and Cultural Studies 

3. Asian Journal of Arts, Humanities and Social Studies

I have 9 years of teaching experience at the tertiary level as an expert on English Literature, specially on Postcolonialism, Marxism, Dalit Literature, African Liiterature, African-American Studies as well as Feminist approaches towards literary texts. I have obtained magna cum laude award in both my grad and postgrad.

My  20 research journal articles (16 solo research journal articles and 4 collaborative academic articles) have got published in Bangladesh, India, Malaysia, USA, Nepal, Bulgaria, UK and Turkey. Research is a worship for me and it gives me immense wholesomeness while I delve into a text passionately.

The voiceless subaltern sections of the society are my focus in articles as I become their spokesman against their subjugators. In addition, I have presented papers at many national conferences in which I have won award as the best Presenter in Nazrul Conference. Furthermore, I have published many Poems, Newspaper editorials, Short Stories and Book Reviews at both national and international platforms. 

As per my personal realm, I I love feeding poor people and giving foods to birds as well as dogs give me sheer joy.   

I believe as life is short, we should always look into positivies. All people have assets, it is only your heart which can locate it if you want. 

BE KIND, FORGIVING, HAPPY!
