Pranay O Prahar by Aditi Basu Roy [Hardcover]

In the poetry collection, light and darkness weave through serpentine paths, mirroring the journey of life - an intimate chronicle of that voyage. The coexistence of curses and flowers ultimately becomes the inheritance of an eternal womanhood. Here, a lamp is lit. And beneath the lamp, soot takes the place of kohl. The renunciation of reverence transforms into the invocation of blows - an ambiguous existence within the cycles of society. The poems in this book speak of that inevitable sorrow and joy.
