Peacock Luggage, a book of poems by Moniza Alvi and Peter Daniels, was published as a result of the two poets jointly winning the Poetry Business Prize in 1991. Since then, Alvi has written five poetry collections: The Country at My Shoulder (1993), shortlisted for the T.S.

In 2002 Alvi received the Cholmondeley Award for her poetry and in the following year, a selection of her works were published in Dutch. After a long career as a secondary school teacher, Moniza Alvi now tutors for the Open College of the Arts and lives in London.
