Osmosis (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9788194527336)

This thin volume contains 35 poems. The collection attempts in various ways, to crystallize and observe 'the moment' and to sublimate it through language. This impulse stems directly from Debarshi Mitra's practice in meditation and curiosity regarding Zen Buddhism. These poems are minimalist and employ sparse lines. Clarity becomes the guiding principle of the book as well as shunning all embellishments in favor of the 'pure' and the 'not obscured.' In an age of increasing commercialization and market mediated identities, the aesthetic choice of minimalism perhaps is the only way of returning to the 'sensory' and the 'immediate.'
