He lives as an internal refugee in Georgia ever since the Russian occupation of the region in the early 1990's. He made his debut in 2006 and immediately became infamous as his poems caused uproar among the conservative and religious communities. His continued career has been crowned by several awards and nominations, and he was the first poet to win the prestigious Georgian SABA Literary Award twice for best poetry collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSchizo-National Anthems\u003c\/em\u003e introduces Shamugia's poetical ingenuity to English readers, offering selected poems from five of his seven collections: \u003cem\u003eContra Epos\u003c\/em\u003e (2006), \u003cem\u003eAdvantage\u003c\/em\u003e (2010), \u003cem\u003eAcathyst Hymns\u003c\/em\u003e (2011), \u003cem\u003eThe Schizoid Society\u003c\/em\u003e (2014), and \u003cem\u003eMother Tongue\u003c\/em\u003e (2017).
