Poetry collection 702 (Edition1)

Bol

"First Love" is Debabrata Purohit's slim, memory-driven poetry collection. It opens with the title-piece- a tentative, childhood crush and infatuation 'You", then widens the place and memory- "misty Mountain", "Banyan tree -my friend", "childhood", "Looking Back", "College Canteen". Domestic life arrives with "Family", "My daughter", "My life- A poem", "Journey" and "I am not alone" He balances warmth with critique, slipping in "Mobile the Devil", "competition" and "Fear", The poems are short, image-led and conversational, more about noticing than declaring. The "First love" is a literal spark, but also is a way of naming all the small things that keep pulling us back into the world.
