Poetry is an animating force at times. It comes alive when the poet magically inscribes a wave and thereby creates a new thing- a world anew- when the text mesmerizes it when the reader experiences its depths and ranges. In his third volume of poems, All These Streets We’ve Known by Heart, Siddharth Dasgupta examines the immediacy of the streets (real and surreal) and the world, the people and their various layers of emotion, the shadowy corner and the connectivity of the place and time.
