Diamond Red and Other Poems is the author’s intense quest for identity, time being an important motif. An attempt is made to rediscover and reconnect with the lost self. As such, most of the poems, through which an undercurrent of the West runs strongly, are confessional. A few have an element of surrealism. The author takes us through various mind states – lopsided depression and alienation, energizing hope, and vigorous pursuit of life’s largeness in rediant forms. The urgent need to connect and thereby reconnect the shards of the psyche is the vibrant chord which runs through the work.
