A Shadow of Memories

In A Shadow of Memories, Tripti Bhatt reminds us that memories are all that survives from our past. Who we are today is a result of our experiences and memories. The new memories we create every moment dissolve into those from the past and become a permanent part of our persona. It's these memories”those of hope,ove,oss, transience, among many others”that are captured beautifully and poignantly in this collection of poems by Tripti Bhatt. A young officer of the Indian Police Service, Tripti'sove for poetry dates back to her school days. Her poems reflect a sense of nostalgia and melancholy and she writes on a wide variety of themes, includingife, emotions, youth, achievement, and all that she considers significant. The symbolism in her writing is unmistakable and everlasting. While Tripti's voice is representative of a generation that is grappling with the paradoxes of modern dayife and the temporariness it brings forth, this passionate and moving collection will resonate with readers across generations.
