In this collection, Gulzar touches on the themes of childhood, poetry, silence and death, among others, as he constructs short cinematic visions of everyday life that rise above the mundane, offering insights. Everywhere, Gulzar is invested in exploring the emptiness within which life unfolds in all its rich detail. Poetry becomes a means of arresting the painful contradictions which make life possible: ‘Come let’s make a poem. / Let’s rake up some wound/ and cry.’ This translation of his poems is a gift to those who cannot read him in Urdu. The translator makes sure that the characteristic felicity of Gulzar’s thought and style carries over into English.
