There is a beauty found in poetry that cannot be seen anywhere else. The way the words flow, the nuances of the language entwined with each line, the emotion held in each verse. Yet, perhaps the biggest impact that poetry holds is its ability to deliver the message with a flourish and still prick your soul.
Notion Press, India’s leading publishing platform, presents Rising Petals by Ashwini Rath. This book is a collection of poetry that runs along the theme of depicting the anxieties that flit across the modern mind. The key learning that we take away from this is how we should strengthen our resolve to face all the trials.
The book shows us that we are human after all and that we are not immune to struggles and difficulties nor are we immune to negative thoughts and emotions. Even if all seems lost and happiness impossible, we should stay true to who we are, true to our elements. Through each poem we see how our mind reacts with anxiety to different variables. Humans are a social race and we are always surrounded by various things and so the author aims to illustrate the anxiety of the modern mind with relation to objects, moods, events, places, circumstances and phenomena.
Ashwini Rath learnt theoretical physics and later turned into an entrepreneur in digital
technologies. He is well-travelled and writes and speaks on technologies and socio-economic
development. He has a keen interest in mathematics, history and music and loves nature and
Indian rural life. He currently lives with his parents, wife and son.
The book is available in print and e-book format at the Notion Press bookstore and several other e-commerce portals including Amazon and Flipkart.
