Is poetry a mere pleasurable pastime, residing on the poets' realms of dream only? Perhaps not.When Fabrizio Frosini, Italian poet and publisher, first thought of writing a book against terrorism, in the aftermath of the bloody terrorist attack in Paris on 13th Nov 2015, he invited many poets to lend their voices against the bloody scourge of terrorism. Sixty-four poets from forty-two countries, worldwide, were united irrespective of their diverse religion, race or creed and wrote poems for the Anthology, 'Poetry Against Terror'.With that book, Fabrizio Frosini brought about a mini revolution of sort in our poetry world, and since then a broad group of poets has been formed under his initiative: the open association, 'Poets Unite Worldwide', is today a vibrant reality. This book, 'Tunes from the Indian Subcontinent', is the latest in a long list, and it collects some of the best poems of poets from six out of the seven countries of this huge region (India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan and Bangladesh).Among the different themes and issues you can found here (: from the plight of the refugees to democracy, inequality and women's status, from climate change to the Arts, from the lovers' feelings to the love for Nature,...), I've chosen just a few lines to let you catch a glimpse of this poetry book:~ "The pure grief hitting the earth like broken glass stabbing God's chest." Ammar Butt writes, then adding: "Every poem I ever wrote is trying to get closer to the people I have lost." ~~ "She can fill a glass of salty tears, / To quench your thirst. / She carries your flesh in her womb, / Yet you blame it to be someone else's." is the opening of Asavri Dhillon's poem; ~~ "She smiled, yes, since she loved, forever, unconditionally; / She suffered at his hands, brutally, and still she smiled at him. / Mona Lisa! She no longer is an artifact confined within walls." is Manu Mangattu's song... ~~ "But inside she is like a ballerina with a / Broken toe, in an opaque glass globe, / Where charcoal snow falls and freezes her heart," the hidden reality of a poor girl, revealed by Soren Mondal's verses. ~Apart from its literary value, this is a book of much social significance and it should be read not only by poetry lovers, but also by teachers, administrators, professionals, politicians, and the common people alike --You have to read the book to find out its real worth.(Bharati Nayak, Bhubaneswar, India)
