7 Days Happy Return

The covers of the Nightfall contain the poetic works of ayoung but surprisingly mature mind. Profound thoughts have been expressed with Extreme economy of words. The poems contain oceans in cups, epics in brief lyrics. A beautiful exposure of the perception of modern times by a mind filled with faith. The metaphors and the allusions are sparkling. English poetry will find an unprecedented taste of the East. The couplet style of Urdu and Persian poetry has been blended in brilliant consort. This book of poems richly deserves a very wide readership.

He went on to do a Diploma in Bengali at the School of Orient & African Studies (SOAS), London. After five years working as a psychiatric nurse and a schoolmaster, he returned to oxford to write a D.Phil. thesis on Michael Madhusudun Datta. In 1990 he became Lecturer in Bengali at SOAS. His publications include two more books of verse (Strivings, 1980 and Louring Skies, 1985, both published by Anvil Press), Selected Poems, and Selected Short Stories of Tagore (tr.) and The Translator’s Art: Essays in Honour of Betty Radice (ed.) for Penguin Books, The Stupid Tiger and Other Tales (tr. From the Bengali of Upendrakishore Raychaudhuri) for Andre Deutsch and Rupa, and Teach Yourself Bengali for Hodder & Sroughton. In 1986 he was awarded the Ananda Puraskar in Calcutta, and in 1987 the Michael Puraskar in Dhaka. He has lectured widely in India and Bangladesh, and is also a regular visitor to Germany.
