The Poetry of Vihang A. Naik

In The Poetry of Vihang A. Naik: New Literary Dimensions , edited by Goutam Karmakar, Naik reaches into the past and future. These are poems of friendship, of love’s stranglehold, of the streets and buildings where history is played out. Elegiac and bittersweet, the poetry features Naik at his best. This collection is valuable from the beginning, not only for its originality, but with the depth and fullness with which the poems communicate internal and external human states. They tell of the world of attitudes arising from inner, strong connections, highlighting emotions that usually carry dilemmas, so that we see such ethics lead to great truths and create wellbeing.
