POET : World Poetry Society , Intercontinental ( India ) : ...The poet is least hopeful about the poet’s contemporary times. He asserts:
“ In this age, dear Reader / Do-not look for a poet.”
The muse has forsaken the poet and he is nowhere among clouds singing a song of birds and bees and :
“ Nowadays / He is a man like / You and me / A voice hooting in the traffic /
with stale words and tired tongue.”
To conclude the beautiful hard bound jacket with the photograph of Vihang Naik (on the front) in the role of Panditji at the age of 3 which won him the first prize at school and firstly appeared in Nostalgia Special issue of Literary journal : The Brown Critique in Oct 1999 - not only attracts our attention best but also leaves an indelible impression on the mind. The book will remain for years on account of its originality, aesthetics, in-depth observation, creativity, fascination and realistic appeal and the poet deserves warm eulogies and hearty welcome for this book from all of his readers.
