Prasupta Roy is an English teacher working in a reputed school in Chennai. Her writing journey started when she was a student of English literature- she has always been inspired by writers and their work. She defines the inevitability of love as, “Love allows us to walk in the sweet music of our particular heart.” She describes love as “the most beautiful and powerful of all feelings that transcends all boundaries and unites hearts. It is sensuous, magical, and spiritual and has the power to captivate and mesmerize one and all. Blessed is the one who falls in love and is loved.” Many of her short stories, articles, and poems have been published in various publications.
Ecstasy, a poetry anthology, is her third book which was released last month. It is a riveting collection of 102 poems that takes the reader on a bittersweet journey through the cloying lanes of love, embellished with lilies and roses, and sometimes ingrained with thorns. It brings back the glory of love in one’s heart if it had lost its sheen, somehow. Roy’s inevitable style renders every shade of love, and readers can feel and resonate with it. Reading through the poems would make one feel rejuvenated and young. Ecstasy portrays all the shades of love and life in a manner which will tug at the reader’s heart and make it a good read.
