"Monsoon - A Poem of Love and Longing" by Abhay K.

"Monsoon - A Poem of Love and Longing" by Abhay K. is a poem about Monsoon and the path that it travels. It starts its journey in Madagascar and ends in Kashmir. 

As the Monsoon travels various places, the poet describes these places in detail, that is full of color, smells and beauty.

Loads of mythological, place and cuisine names are used and it's possible to get lost in so much culture and description. However, a list of explanations is given in every page and there is a vocabulary provided at the end of the book.

The writing is very Indian in a way that the poem is just as colorful and diverse as the Indian Sub-Continent. It's a beautiful colorful chaos full of nostalgia.

I usually don't read poetry and received this book by mistake and I must say it was an interesting experience to read it.
