Jayant Kashyap: NOTES ON BURIALS out now!

Poems from ‘Notes on Burials’ have appeared in good places, incl. @poetry_london and @bombaylitmag. Beginning mid-July, I’ll be sending out signed copies to everyone interested (₹474 / £5.5 + postage) — please get in touch if you’d like a copy or two. Comment. Text. Email. 🥂☺️

@amazon / @amazonin having a field day again with my meagre sum of money—it's been 3 months and they haven't been able to refund around INR 1,600—such a shame!

I’ve got two poems in this new issue of the very brilliant Welsh @modronmagazine, including this fun experiment called ‘On meaning to leave’. The other poem ‘From the loft’ is available here: modronmagazine.com/two-poems-by-j… —and some really beautiful poems from amazing writers. 🌳🌍

‘Notes on Burials’ has received so much love, including being Atrium’s Featured Publication in January and Feb. Thank you! 🙏🏼

@TheYorksTimes Thank you 😍😍

So, @amazonhelp has gone from “Cool!” to “meh!” in a couple years or so! 5 complaints placed in 3 weeks for the exact same issue. No luck yet! sup, @amazonIN/@amazon?

@AmazonHelp @amazonIN @amazon Are you capable of escalating (and resolving) this though? Only today I’ve talked to six Amazon representatives and am still without a solution.

@jaydkash @amazonIN @amazon @jaydkash We're sorry for the unpleasant experience you've had with our service. We'd like to escalate this further. Please reach out to us via DM, and we'll do our best to assist. Further, please don't include any personal or account information. -Idrees twitter.com/messages/compo…

Very frustrated with this insincere response from @amazonIN customer service. 4 complaints in 3 weeks about refunds to be processed against UNDELIVERED items, and no resolution, no acknowledgement, nor accepting any responsibility for the situation. What’s up, @amazon?

I’ve loved going to @KFC for sometime now. I’ve been in Allahabad, Indore, Bangalore, and elsewhere. But the one in Purnea was a lousy fail (left my intestines unsettled) and if an honest inspector was to visit, they’d at least find old oil being used. And why?! @KFC_India 😞

It’s been a minute since I began reading my poems out loud, but only recently have I put up a podcast. It’s everywhere, and today’s is an old one—written after a brilliant painting of Vera Iliatova’s; and was @inksweattears’ May 2021 pick of the month. open.spotify.com/episode/1xWVZk…

Our first poetry excerpt from BIOPHILIA. ‘Annotations on Microbes’ from Jayant Kashap @jaydkash We adored his perspective on our theme and felt it was the perfect tone to begin our life-rooted symphony You can read the whole poem here wingedmoon.com/biophilia

@Audrey_Molloy @TheGalleryPress @artscouncil_ie Congratulations, Audrey!

Pinching myself that this beautiful article has my name on it! Much gratitude to those who made it possible including the team @TheGalleryPress as well as @artscouncil_ie and a whole community of generous poets and friends.

@JaneBurn14 Congratulations, Jane! 🥂

@Rachel__Curzon @PoetryBookSoc @chickenbex Thank you so much, Rachel! 🙏🥰

@jaydkash @PoetryBookSoc @chickenbex Technical precision / emotional openness = the absolute dream. So great (and very unsurprised) to see these excellent reviews, Jayant.

‘Notes on Burials’ has received SOME praise lately, from Alice Kate Mullen in the @poetrybooksoc Autumn Bulletin, and from @chickenbex on the eche poetry website. Utterly grateful for all the kindness! 🙇🏻 poetrybusiness.co.uk/product/notes-… 📖
