Wet Radio and other poems Goirick Brahmachari

A personal diary of love, longing, places, politics and disillusionment... About Wet Radio: "Brahmachari tackles many different styles and cadences in language that I understand. And none of these poems put me to sleep with repetition. In fact, I was delighted by the constant shifts of meter and the unexpected subject matter. Brahmachari presents a life's work; there are microscopic moments with cosmic significance. Make no mistake, this collection is a summation of a life. It is an epic"- Mike Fiorito, Mad Swirl, December 2018..."If one finds four or five exemplary poems in a book, it is worth a definite read: this collection titled Wet radio and other poems by Goirick B is rife with them."- Ambika Ananth, Muse India, April 2018..."These poems are rich with what Clifford Geertz might call "thick description," with almost quotidian descriptions erupting into branching metaphors and surreal juxtapositions"- Omar Willey, The Seattle Star, March 2018..."What makes Goirick's music poems outstanding is the balance with which he scales them. Even as he articulates something as abstract as the sensory experience of listening to music, he melds that experience with the mundane business of everyday living."- Bhaswati Ghosh, Kitaab, December 201
