Boundary Commissions: Love Poems

About the BookTHE NEWEST ADDITION TO THE WESTLAND POETRY SERIES, THE POEMS IN THIS COLLECTION TELL US A UNIQUE STORY OF LOVE.What is this feeling between a man and a woman that impels them over the mutable terrains of love-erecting and erasing boundaries as circumstances and the passage of time dictate?Drawing from the vocabulary of Sangam poetry, Indian classical music and cartography, Kala Krishnan spins a story of two lovers, which is at the same time a tale of the romance and alchemical promise of language.About the AuthorKala Krishnan writes, teaches and lives in Bangalore, with Totoro, Sathyavak, Gauri and Paru. She writes poetry and prose, often losing track of the boundaries between the two. She is enthralled by the workings of language-a chimera she has been chasing much of her working life. She values family, friendship, and her students.
