The appearance of Dilip Bharati on the Indian literary scene presages new vistas in world literature itself. After writing in his native language for about four decades, Bharati, with this collection, turns to English. This book accommodates some of Bharatis best English poems, which question the contemporary mode of writing poetry. The onslaught of faux naof poets was too much for the inspirer of poetic imagination the Muse and she left disconsolate. Out of flux, the poet gropes for the Muse in exile. The pen scratches out words that remain a frantic search for a foothold that is mercurial, and the poetic voices are scattered here and there like scraps of paper. The poems on despair, love, and beauty are marked off by an exotic approach. In short, "Muse in Exile" is a soul-searchers tour-de-force -- an indispensable read for a contemporary reader.
