by Goirick Brahmachari

A chapbook of travel notes, experimental/ micro poems.

Cover sketch by Nitoo Das.


Reviews:

"Brahmachari’s second collection, joining the dots, is a development over the first. The images are more precise and let the reader do half the work by showing rather than telling (‘trees stand up like goosebumps’). The line is tighter, the poems shorter."

“ 'joining the dots' made me feel that the journey might be going forever, with time to consider landscape, and the phenomena of memory and passage of time as marked by melting of snow, by light and dark-as marked by nature"

"Goirick’s poems are experimental, down-to-earth, hard-headed and now and then purposely pessimistic and sceptical, and they have sufficient material to incense a stern grammarian"
