Question on contemporary poets
by ARINDAM GHOSH on Aug 08, 2007 01:35 PM

The reply to the question ( "Are there contemporary poets in Mumbai you are currently excited about?") has inherent elements af abstraction and alienation that mark the Genex poets in the country. In Tagore's short story "Nosto Neerd" ( made into film "Charulata" by S.Ray) the elder brother is stunned by the writing of his younger brother( a budding writer) titled - "Amavasyaar Alo"( meaning "The Light of New Moon")!!!! In the present case the Mumbai based poet's take on the most exciting other poet is one from Mizoram ! How one reaches there , /Madam Sir !!!!!Genex is always like that...!!!!!
