A City of Echoes is Yashoda Bhat’s third collection of poems which includes poems written in Delhi during her stay there for 23 years (1976-1999) . Her well- received earlier two collections of poems entitled Afternoon Poems and Pebbles gave her a recognizable poetic voice. In her third collection, Delhi-A city of Echoes she continues her poetic journey. Finely and subtly sensitive in her poetic sensibility, crips in expression, rich in poetic reflection, this collection of poems weaves varied small, reflective descriptive beautiful pictures of Delhi. The speciality of her poetry is that it is very much deeply embedded in the typical Indian ethos.

Delhi has changed tremendously during the past decade. In the midst of sweeping changes of development also sensitive souls will continue to hear the echoes of history in the rich mega metropolis. Perhaps, Delhi-A City of Echoes will become one more echo in the vibrand large, chorus of varied echoes.
