Explore the profound, romantic melancholia of Calcutta through the seminal poetry of Chakrabarti Bhaskar. Emerging in India’s vibrant 1960s and ’70s, his trenchant voice captures the era’s socio-political currents: militant leftism, widespread poverty, the Bangladesh war, and Indira Gandhi’s reign. These evocative poems delve into urban angst and alienation, rendered in deceptively lucid language and delicate metaphors. A must-read for lovers of modern Indian literature, Bengali poetry enthusiasts, and anyone seeking powerful poetic social commentary reflecting India’s transformative decades.
