A Leaf in His Ear: Selected Poems

By Mahadai Das

This collection brings together unpublished poems, uncollected poems, and poems from the previous three collection of the late Mahadai Das. In her personal and political triumphs and losses, this book explores the poet's Indo-Guyanese background, her youthful nationalist fervor, and her disillusionment with post-independence politics. Also included are poems that explore private themes and address illness and death with disarming directness.
