Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. "Guest and Host" records the experience of being welcomed into the household of a foreign country. At some distance from the travel-book viewpoint of the outsider-looking-in, Winter is able to capture the country in a deeper light through staying rather than travelling, and living rather than…merely observing. The sonnet-sequence "Guest and Host" is complemented by a powerful poem on the 2001 earthquake at Kutch; a fascinating sequence based on the reminiscences of an infantry officer of the British Raj; and, a dramatic poem on Durga, the goddess of Calcutta's annual festival of Durga Puja. Includes poems recording the experience of being welcomed into a household in Calcutta, capturing the country in a light through staying rather than travelling, and living rather than merely observing. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
