Eshant

Eshant is a collection of poems that encompasses various moods of life. It dwells in the philosophical and deeper aspects of life - romance and passion, loneliness and loss. It also includes a few light-hearted poems and funny expressions. The poems often introduce a novel concept, a new way of looking at certain facets of life. 

The poems in the book are best defined and described in one word, 'Manaswini' - the ones which fly in gay abundance with a boundless spectrum of emotions. On one hand, the delicate feelings of love, romance and passion are narrated. On the other hand, the creeping of aloofness and loneliness in human relations are described. The poet expresses his longing for love and warmth when life is tilting toward some unknown emptiness.

The poet seems to be trying to frame and preserve fleeting moments of vibrant happiness and joy. Sometimes he complains about himself for not being able to preserve the love and warmth that he is longing for. In bouts of dire, dreadful loneliness, the poet seems to even exit from life itself. He observes himself as an overlooking ghost, experiencing events occurring post his death.

The book is a spectrum of poems exhibiting many colours of life. Besides the literary excellence, it is supported by a plethora of fabulous artwork too. It is poised to be a rising star on the horizon of Gujarati literature. Eshant is an expression of the soul and an echo of moments of quietude in serene tranquillity.
