A beautiful reflection of thoughts delicately morphed into poetry.
Rudrendra Prasad Ghosh, popularly known as R.P.Ghosh,
transforms his own personal narrations into Seventy-two poems,
covering many phases from delights and sorrows of life, to the
elegance of flora and fauna of the vast Nature in its purest forms.
Delve into these wonderfully written verses, grazing over
political turmoil in society, dipping into trends of religious
intolerance and suppression of humanity.
Fifteenth title to the author’s credit, ‘The Mighty Memories’
is mature work by a poet who has learnt to know his own mind,
the world around him, and how to make each speak to the other
through the medium of a finely controlled and carefully modulated
poetic and philosophic narration.
His creative self-assessment of situations in his life in other
countries, and with different cultures, is both fascinating and
thought-provoking and the reader can look forward to exploring
new ways of thinking.
In short, the collection juxtaposes wistful hope and harsh
reality in a very evocative way.
