WLT has received two dozen publishing awards in the past twenty years, including the Phoenix Award for Editorial Achievement from the Council of Editors of Learned Journals in 2002. Accomplished, sensitive, and often disturbing, these stories take us into the lives of modern Pakistanis-privileged and poor, gay, trans, and straight. Now in its tenth decade of continuous publication, WLT has been recognized by the Nobel Prize committee as one of the "best edited and most informative literary publications" in the world, and was recently called "an excellent source of writings from around the globe by authors who write as if their lives depend on it" (Utne Reader, 2005). Spanning the globe, WLT features lively essays, original poetry and fiction, coverage of transnational issues and trends, author profiles and interviews, book reviews, travel writing, and coverage of the other arts, culture, and politics as they intersect with literature. World Literature Today, the University of Oklahoma's bimonthly magazine of international literature and culture, opens a window to the world in every issue. Things She Could Never Have is a love story about two young trans women living in Karachi.
