Poetry became a form of expression for my grief, criticism and anger. For me, this was my freedom song.”
SALMA’s writing stands out for its audacity and boldness in engaging with language, ideas, society, and politics. Her life is as dramatic and inspiring as her writing has been. This book seeks to bring alive the richness of her vocabulary as well as her perceptions of what life and creativity mean to her through the translations of her selected poems by K SRILATA and SHOBHANA KUMAR, an in-depth interview with CHANDANA DUTTA and essays written exclusively for this book by her closest friends — MEENA KANDASAMY, PERUMAL MURUGAN, and KANNAN SUNDARAM. The magic of these words will now find their way into the hearts of readers.
