Abstract

WB Yeats's literary career was largely inspired by the troubles in his country, Ireland, and he wrote to fix them. But, according to WH Auden, Yeats's work didn't do much to establish peace and stability in Ireland. Likewise, Hasina's autocracy got me out of my academic cocoon and motivated me to write essays on down-to-earth issues that affected Bangladesh during her rule. Regardless of its effects on others, my writerly commitment to noble causes serves as a source of moral comfort for me.
