Shankar Chakraborty Translated by Moumita Pal With a foreword by Ketaki Kushari Dyson Cover : Shyamalbaran Saha Shankar Chakraborty, an eminent poet of seventy's who embarked a specific poetry language in bengali poetry. Shankar Chakraborty is an unparalleled poet in Bengali literature, creating a unique realm of po- etic imagination. He has no predecessors. With ut- most care, in his completely original language, he crafts one after another vivid portrayal in the intricate tapestry of his imaginary world. His subject matter delves into the intricate inner landscapes of modern human minds. His poetry transcends the rationality of the brain to illuminate the logic of emotions. Each sentence by Shankar is an unparalleled canvas, viv- idly depicting a surrealistic essence, akin to the clear picture of an abstract reality.---Ketaki Kushari Dyson
