Description

The vast, sweeping panorama that is Kashmir comes beautifully, immediately and immortally alive in the glowing water colours of Masood Hussain which adorn this magnificent book. Kashmiris themselves are to the forefront, busy with their tasks in all weathers, or themselves enjoying the vibrancy of colours and aromas of their homeland in moments of leisure and peace. Irish poet Gabriel Rosenstock responds to these various landscapes with tanka poetry and haiku with all the poignancy that characterises his best work, charged as it is with echoes of bhakti poetry and Sufi wisdom.
