Point No Point

Sujata Bhatt's first book of poems, the award-winning Brunizem, appeared in 1988. Her poems deal with issues about her native India and her native tongue (Gujarati), America and Britain, and Germany where she now lives. Language, politics and gender, place and history are key themes that emerge in this work. Hers is a remarkable complete imagination, generous and at the same time unsparingly severe in its quest for the difficult truths of experience.
