Eh You want bodies, blood, sex, gore, damning gods, raw uppercuts
Why, yes. Pooja Mittal Biswas welcomes you into the ring of identity and the hunt for an honest and rapier self.
Glove up.
Confessional poetry can deteriorate into fetishism, in Biswass hands the first person narrative soars detailed, raw, palpable, her poems have a sense of immediacy. The collection ends with a transported long poem titled madness that more than hints at the poets mental state and therapy. Stunned, I found myself anxious for the poet so human is this book, her hunger and predation included. Mani Rao
