In the latest Muse India Issue (126), Atreya Sarma, the Chief Editor, while reviewing Kiriti Sengupta's Selected Poems, writes:
Kiriti has dedicated this book to Sanjeev Sethi, a uniquely creative and logophilic poet whose style seems to have certainly created an impact on Kiriti. By the way, this reviewer's (Atreya Sarma's) review of Sanjeev Sethi's poetry collection 'This Summer and That Summer' (Bloomsbury, 2015) was featured in Tuck Magazine (May 26, 2016 and at Boloji.com (May 29, 2016).
It prompts me to share a poem published in Nepal's Kathmandu Tribune.
