Empressions by Sainath Nagarajan
Poetry is not a dispassionate exercise in merely enumerating
the myriad forms and flows in which language can be woven to
the selfish pleasure of the penholder’s mind. This book’s
purpose is to interact, have a dialogue, an engagement, an
experience — of empressions. An experience where you will
hopefully keep coming back to these words, to find new
meaning and associations, woven into the words we share
together.
The old-world charm about the poems reminds me of a time
when the world was a lot more innocent.- Somdatta Ghosh,
literary agent and author of Postcards from Mysore
The poems transform images and bring to life the natural world
of fire, wind, water, sea, trees, flowers.- George Ruckert,
faculty, Artistic Director, MIT Heritage for the Arts of South
Asia
The striking clarity of thought and feeling is what draws the
reader towards Nagarajan’s writing.- Rashmi Menon, faculty,
English Department, Glendale Community College, Arizona
