White Addition Black Total – Chinmoy Jena

Description

Intriguing as the title, and stunning as the cover of Chinmoy Jena’s book is, it is but nothing compared to the evocative poetry inside.

It draws you in and leaves you breathless. It plunges you into a whirlpool of emotions from which there appears to be no reprieve. And then a blast of fresh air makes your spirits soar like an eagle.

Jena speaks for every one of those hapless families from Kabul to Damascus, whose present has been torn apart by unabating violence and future denied on unwelcoming shores.
