Synopsis Nissim Ezekiel's name is synonymous with Modern Indian English poetry. This book contains a critical evaluation of his poems. It reveals the thematic variety of the poems, contemporariness of the subjects, social relevance of the themes chosen, styles, techniques etc. While the book praises the poetic talents of Ezekiel, it laments the decline of the poetic craft during the later years. This is an invaluable addition to the "Indian Writers Series."
