The February edition of ‘Afternoons with an Author’ will discuss Supriya Newar’s latest collection of verse ‘Kolkata Classics’ that captures the essence of the city via vivid imagery and gentle humour. Poetry brings Supriya joy and her latest book ‘Kolkata Classic’ is the author’s ode to her hometown Kolkata. It depicts the nuances of the city which gives it character. Supriya Newar charms us with her keen observation and expression of a city she calls home. The city lends itself effortlessly to poetry where its vivid colours, confusions and its conundrums find mention in the twenty-four verses penned by her.
The author will be in conversation with Sandip Roy a well-known novelist, podcaster and columnist based in Kolkata. He hosts the Sandip Roy Show for Indian Express and his dispatches air on public radio in San Francisco every week. He is a columnist for Mint Lounge, The Hindu and other publications. A veteran of lit fests, his award winning debut novel is Don’t Let Him Know.
The discussion will be moderated by Dr Sanjeev Chopra Author, Historian, Policy Analyst, Columnist and Festival Director of Valley of Words.
