Comment Bimal Guha’s Poems are about the problem of our time,more particularly about the difficulties of adjustmentthat feeling and thinking individual facs in an increasingly alienating world. As values are forgotten or become obsolete,and relationships become problematic,individuals have to struggle to cling to their dreams. Guha writes movingly about love which can offer a way out but which is constantly thwarted by a mechanical universe,Guha also writes about the need for social change. What makes his poems remarkable is his crisp style which both invokes the rich tradition of the 1930s and charts its distance from it. His diction is persona,contemporary and colloquial. His poems are indeed records of a creative pursuit that xcels when in finds challenges. – Dr Syed Manzoorul Islam,Professor,University of Dhaka,Department of English
