K V Dominic's Musings on Covid Pandemic and Beyond (Collection of Poems)

 


This is Dr. K. V. Dominic’s 7th poetry collection in English. Out of the 43 poems in this book 9 are on Covid pandemic. The first poem “Coronavirus, Mightiest Wizard of All Times” runs to twenty sections. The themes and topics of the rest of the poems are as various as Nature, environment, animals, plight of farmers, sex workers, slum dwellers, karma, religion, tributes, elegies, social criticism, etc. As Dr. Ramesh Chandra Mukhopadhyaya states in his foreword to the book, “K. V. Dominic, shut up in Kerala, sings hymns unbidden hiding in the privacy of the glorious light of compassion till the world is wrought to sympathy with hopes and fears it hidden not. And it appears that the main theme of poetry in this volume is nostalgia or homesickness.” The book is published by Authorspress, New Delhi is 2011.

The book is available though amazon. The link is:
