Publisher's Synopsis
This collection brings together, for the first time, poetry from three strikingly different phases of Joy Goswami's formidable literary career - 'Ashes, Burnt by the Sun', 'Shiva, My High' and 'Merely a Spurt of Time'. Selected and translated by Sampurna Chatterji, this book, which includes an in-depth interview with the poet, introduces the English reader to the world of a poet whose language is powerful, inventive and often enigmatic.
