Ramin Jahanbegloo

Description

This is an interesting book of conversations, which not only endorses the life and thoughts of Ashok Vajpeyi, but also praises poetry in general. Ashok Vajpeyi is a poet who is at home with the word. He speaks to the mortals and the divinities. He makes the mystery of the world visible to us by speaking with/of poetry. Throughout these conversations we encounter a poet who sets his own pace through poetry, music and painting. Ashok Vajpeyi's deep sense of expectation from arts is born out of his love of the world, which renders moral dignity to creativity.
