Author Description

Perhaps most abundant of all in a book of such magnitude, are poems that invoke the people, places and things that have forged the poet's sensibility and sculpted her faith in the beauty and power of language; poems expressed at times with brilliant imagery. Fuse is a series of poems strung together as a glistening strand of insights, serving as a call to action for the evolution and ultimate salvation of the human race." - Alan Britt Noted American Poet "Bina is a visualiser. She experiences a moment and visualises the thought and then expresses it in words. Visual language is the central point of her poems. Since I know her interest in paintings, and photography (and a photographer.). I can easily see the process of her writing a poem. The images which she picks up are also processed; that is why they go beyond the poem. - Gulzar Indian Poet, lyricist and film director "Bina Sarkar's slender poems hang visually like stalactites down the cool white page. Unlike stalactites, however, they are warm, lyrical and pellucid, talking of friendship, love, nature and politics." -George Szirtes Hungarian-British poet
