“Layered in mythology and lyricism, Sahni’s poems are rich and relevant. Readers versed in Indian gods & legends will process some of the poems more easily, but even without such a background, most of the poems are accessible enough and worthwhile for Sahni’s careful images and powerful strokes. From one poem to the next, there’s such power in her words as to force readers into stopping and re-reading, to relive a moment, and in some cases whole poems just beg to be re-read.”
