In My Grandfather's House

By Kamla Dutt

In her first book of poems, science and fiction writer Kamla Dutt shows us the landscapes of longing and memory-the geographies of love, nostalgia, regret and consolation. With extraordinary sensitivity, combining frank emotion with clinical observation, she explores public and private realities: complex family ties; heart-ease and heartbreak; the aftermath of Punjab's Partition; alienation in the country of one's birth; the immigrant's imperfect sense of belonging. As poet and novelist Nirupama Dutt notes in her preface, 'The reader will roam freely through these pages as if through a familiar garden, moving from one poem to another guided by the quiet strength and wisdom of someone who has truly lived.'
