Quiet Whispers

Sujata Mishra is a very assiduous and hard-working poet who impresses me with her insight into poetry. I understand that she writes very well in Odia and her poems are very intriguing in English too. She already has collections of poetry to her credit that are well spoken of and I am very happy that she is bringing out Quiet Whispers, her latest one, soon. I wish her all the best with it as I have read many of her poems in English and have found them really noteworthy for making me think and her experiment with post modernism and the language. These poems are from an earlier time, soft and more in the romantic vein and direct, but still all the hallmarks of good poetry are there in them.
