In ‘Echoes’, the author explores the eddies and backwaters and torrents in the current of life. She tries to stay at whatever moment in its course and arrives at its complete significance. If she portrays tragedy, it is not only an occasion for some outburst of grief but also a source from which she gathers strength. And out of defeat, she weaves the experience into the fabric of character and imbues its resignation with new thought and resolve for other ventures.
In each poem there is a situation as it reveals the soul of the protagonist. She prefers to study the inner landscape. The inner man, the psyche of the individual. The poems in ‘Echoes’ unravel the intricate tangle of human motives, moods, emotions and thoughts.
