Description
About The Book
The Souvenir, the debut poetry collection by Baishali Sarkar takes the reader down memory lane. The vivid description with the apt location and timing keeps the reader glued to her poems conferring the feeling of connection to one’s life as one goes with the flow. Written with all her heart the passive panorama of time magic is relevant throughout the collection. Furthermore, The Souvenir acts like a memorandum to one’s lifetime as a feeling of tranquility prevails in her words. The book is all about growing up in the ’90s India where life was simpler and therefore at this juncture, reminiscing about that nostalgia seems a breath of fresh air.
