Darkness in the Fool Anant Shastri

DARKNESS IN THE FOOL is a collection of poetry spanning over 15 years. It caters to that miniscule bit of darkness that each one of us have in us, which craves to be engulfed in light. Take a journey of fluctuating emotions as you fly from happiness to sadness to grief to ecstasy: the truest emotions that one experiences in the journey of life. In this book that is highly influenced by the beauty of nature, which it glorifies in various forms, you will find most of the poems to be written in a sing-song manner with attractive rhyme schemes. Each piece of poem is followed by a humble description of the author's thoughts. Written as a form of catharsis, the poetry in the book can be relatable by all those who feel alienated among human beings but have learnt to find joy in solitude.
