ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Pritam Das is a Btech Student in chemical technology at Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology, Bhubaneswar. While navigating through college, he developed a habit of journaling his experiences in the form of poetry which originally led to the inception of ‘As Days Gone By’. Pritam’s razor edge observation of the mundane and inquisitive nature proves to be the fuel that drives his poetic verses. The book serves as a collection of vignettes reflecting the inner subconscious of a young adult charting their way through life. Pritam is a man of quite a few hobbies, and when he is not frantically scribbling his thoughts down on paper, you may find him with his guitar. His love for music echoes through his writings as he crafts verses resembling the structure of a song which engages the reader to read it with a tune. Pritam is also a skilled researcher with quite a few articles and papers under his belt.
