First translated book by a working-class Indian poet
This is a rare book of beautiful poetry by one of the first working class poets of India to be translated and published in English. Comments by reviewers: "In their rendering, Anuradha Mahapatra's vision is simultaneously poetic and political, local and horizonless, moved by love and utterly unsentimental." Adrienne Rich "These are burning poems, giving off a spell of light, casting deep shadows across continents." Linda Hogan ""Anuradha Mahapatra's exquisite poetry springs from a working-class life amd sensibility rare in literary India." Florence Howe
