The pieces here are incisive yet not irreverent. They explore the core areas of major poets like A.K. Ramanujan and locate the elusive themes of Jayanta Mahapatra. The established as well as the emerging voices in Indian English poetry are dealt with comfortingly and comfortably. The art and issues of Indian poetry in English translation get an illuminating discussion. The poet’s concern for his contemporaries much as they deserve it holds this work aloft.
