Noise Cancellation: Poems

350.00

Noise Cancellation envisions a sustainable consciousness. A way of life where attention is paid to everyday details instead of constant digital alerts. The rich aroma of potatoes in poppy seeds, the beauty of block prints, the pain of a homeless dog, the dilemma of online classes, the joy of growing plants and holding a fistful of wet earth, the sweet and sour waters of Ugadi Pachadi — these become the core of poems, nourishing the mind, body and soul — weary of the unavoidable chaos of the present world.

Press Reviews

Jhilam Chattaraj writes of the challenges and rewards of teaching, writing, loving and connecting across distances in a universe of apps and absent ringtones. Wry, affectionate, delicately-modulated and determined to ‘sing sunward,’ these poems in praise of food, love, longing and literature map the recurrent and ancient human need to tap the air / for the sweet wound of knowledge. –ARUNDHATHI SUBRAMANIAM
