Samar Ghose

Turn, Climb, Realign Samar Ghose

"'turn, climb, realign' is a journey into the inscrutable connectivity between language and consciousness, a connectivity that is often and unavoidably expressed in images bordering on the surreal. Samar Ghose has taken haibun/gembun to a new level with his sequences creating dense and intriguing worlds where the reader glimpses at pieces, fragments, overhears voices in conversation from the next room through a thin wall, often catching fluttering phrases that the mind cannot help but try to complete in an attempt, as it were, to fill out what's missing. This chapbook is exemplary in its economy of words and a book that despite its brevity has just the right size for each sequence to make an impact." - Johannes S. H. Bjerg, Writer & Editor
