Intense, morbid, stark, realistic, thought-provoking and unputdownable are the words that come to mind when you read Sabarna Roy’s latest book: ‘Thirty Summer Poems and Conversations about a Murder’.The poems wind around the psychology and thought process that most human beings experience, at some point in their life as they trudge along its path.A book for the mature reader, it makes for a serious read and may not be enjoyed by someone who is looking for some light-hearted fun read to relax with! However, it does not cater to any specific age group.The prose is precise, exciting and has all the elements a detective story should have, despite its short length. - Shayoni Mitra, EditorA technocrat by profession, Roy's keen observation and detailed sketches of the human mind shine through his literature, proving him to be a literary scientist of sorts who follows no conventions when it comes to soulful writing. - Business Standard
