Hindi Poet Manglesh Dabral Succumbs to Covid
“He was one of those poets who brought a new sensibility to contemporary Hindi poetry, a new sophistication, the way to use language in a very low key and concentrated form. He was not a showy poet, but in his understated fashion, he brought magic to Hindi poetry."

What Sparks Poetry:
Johannes Göransson on "The Angelgreen Sacrament"
"In difference to the traditional lyric model, where any 'inconsistencies' make the artwork suspect, Martell argues that it is these very rifts that open the poem up, throw the reader into a 'real' of artistic encounter. I would say that Olsson’s book is a 'rifted' lyric. It’s a lyric but it goes on too long, it confuses who is reader and who is writer, who is angel and who is human. It even confuses the angel with a dress worn as a teenager." |
