About The Book
In his second collection of poems, Vikram Seth offers a deeply reflective exploration of three cultures that have shaped his life: India, California, and China. With striking imagery and poignant observations, Seth captures the essence of each, weaving together tales of Chinese noblemen, lovers, and the quiet beauty of a deserted California beach. His poetry delves into the power of nature—whether moonlight or music—and its ability to heal and hurt in equal measure.
This collection stands out for its keen eye on the world around him, rather than the inner workings of the poet's own sensibility. As critic Donald Davie noted, the poems in this book have a lasting impact, offering a simplicity and clarity that resonate long after reading. For those seeking a poignant, evocative journey through diverse cultures and emotions, this collection by Vikram Seth is both illuminating and inspiring.
