Aprašymas

DeScriPtion

A towering figure in English poetry from South Asia, Keki Daruwalla has been

admired by an entire generation of readers for the power and vigour, the sharp

sense of irony and, more recently, the deep, strangely soothing poignancy

of his poems. He has also been acclaimed for the historical and geographical

sweep of his themes, his uncommon responsiveness to the natural world, and

the rare immediacy of his language.

All of these qualities inform his extraordinary new collection of poems

written over almost five years, between 2018 and 2022, including the long

months of the COVID pandemic when Daruwalla was infected himself, and

produced a magnificent long poem-'The Night Attendant'.

In this major work, Daruwalla shows us again why he is a giant, and a true

original, of Indian poetry.
