I remember sitting in for a poetry recital at the Asiatic Library celebrating 200 years of being in 2004, where Jerry Pinto, Arundhati Subramaniam, and Adil Jussawala reciting from Dom Moraes, Arun Kolatkar, and Nissim Ezekiel.<BR/><BR/>Of the three, Kolatkar came alive in the recital, thanks largely to his raw imagery, with ironic twists at the end.Anil Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02422187314611747278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5057873.post-1166343978563830082006-12-17T13:56:00.000+05:302006-12-17T13:56:00.000+05:30That was me, and Mehrotra is an anthology.
