Inhaltsangabe:

A collection of poems by Ramprasand Sen, written in Bengal in the 18th century. The works express his passionate devotion for the Great Mother Goddess, primarily in her manifestation as Kali, the dark goddess and gaurdian of the cycles of birth and death.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Ramprasad Sen's poems traverse the spectrum of human experience, from vibrant joy to shadowy moods, from the sorrow of an abandoned child to the intoxicated hilarity of a man drunk with Kali's love, to the high calm of a worshiper tasting release. At once powerful and gentle, brash and subtle, these poems speak to the modern reader with ageless passion.
