LANDFALL

Bag om LANDFALL

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.

Beskrivelse af LANDFALL

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.
