About the Author:
Dr. Anuradha Bhattacharyya teaches English in Postgraduate Government College, Sector 11, Chandigarh. Her childhood was spent in Durgapur, Roorkee, Jaipur and Kolkata. After completing her higher education in Kharagpur and Mumbai, she worked in New Delhi, before moving to Chandigarh. The experiences arising from having lived in so many cities have informed her writing. Dr. Bhattacharyya is strongly influenced by the writings of D. H. Lawrence, Sigmund Freud, Jacques Lacan and T. S. Eliot. She has published two other collections of poetry with Writers Workshop, India – Fifty Five Poems (1998) and Knots (2012).
Teaser:
A Loner
Alone
As always
The dim
Diligent figure
Works
Its ways
In an old-fashioned
Tardy grace.
A loner
Never groans
For there’s
No one
To hear
His trepidation
When alone
He tramps
Through
Tedious days
Etching some
Bizarre
Comic
Untrue
Untold
Fugitive
Felonious ways.
