Selected Poems – Dipak Misra

The bouquet of poems by Justice Dipak Mishra contains two creative flowerings that may be earmarked as extended soliloquies. The poems depict the agony and angst in the traumatised mindscape of their epic protagonists. The first is the story of searing Identity crisis. The other one is an account of ravaging personality conflict. x x x These two poems that have regaled the Odia readers for long are now available English. The connoisseurs can therefore overcome the linguistic constraints to savour their meditative flavour.’- from Preface by Prof. Niladri Bhusan Harichandan
