Satya Mohanty’s debut volume of poetry brings together a generous selection of poems that span different stages in the poet’s life, demonstrating a mature sensitivity and an evolved art. Dancing on the Edge is about persons at war with themselves. It retrieves fragments and episodes from the multiple pasts that we inherit and live in. The unmistakably layered poems, deeply rooted in monolithic and cross pollinated cultures, create a cultural confluence. They explore belonging and exile, love and betrayal, suffering and realization, hope and soaring ambition. There is a kind of fox-trotting between history and modernity, sadness and hope, earthiness and the largeness of historical vision.
