Description About The Author:- Amrita Ganguly was born in Nigeria, Africa, in 1970. I feel words are an art form and logically, scribbling, a passion. As a person of words (and hopefully of some wit and wisdom too!). I am one of the lucky few who have managed to turn my passion into a professor, and, for a living, I write both locally as well as for establishments abroad. In offering you Proxy, a collection of what I feel is my finest work till date which also marks a decade of writing, I try to take the reader to a Destination Unbound, with foreign influences tiding over the work, asking for only a smile in return.Contents:- PART-I: POEMS 2004 • Celluloid Dreams • The Shadow • Speaking Without Worlds • Metroraiders • To all the Beautiful Ones • A Man's Life • The Final State • Today's Tower • Look and You shall Find? • Infidelity Again • A Woman's Song • Voices (In Memory of Mimi) • Mr. Moon • I, The Fool • I'm no Saint, My God Sleeps • The Long and Short of It • Life • The Wench (1) • The Wench (2) • My Dream • Innocence • Infidelity • PART-II: THE JUNIPER TREE • Occupational Hazards • Equal Opportunities (1) • Equal Opportunities (2) • Clown Town • PART-III: SCRATCH YOUR NOGGIN • Moving Forward • The 12 Faces of Time • Forever • The Wall • PART-IV: A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE • A Battered Women • Destination Unbound • PART-V: FOOTSTEPS IN SAND • Dimensions • Sundown in Nevada • MCP • Silence 2 • The Flipside • PART-VI: MOTHBALLS AND MISTRESSES • PMS • Mothballs ands Mistresses • Upon Matrimony • PART-VII: I AND U TRUE BLUE • The Playing Grounds • Song of Wrath • Power • Heritage • Massah • I and U - True Blue • True Blue • Yesterday One More • Identity • Cacophony • PART-VIII: WORLDS • Runaway Girl • A Closed Door • Is it Really More Beautiful • The Swan's Last Song • Money Making Machines • Dancing by Moonlight • A Shattered Mirror • The Crossroads.About The Book:- Although Foreign Winds Blow Strongly Over Proxy, The Latest Offering From Amrita Ganguly'S Treasure Trove Of Words, Ms. Ganguly, In This Collection Of Poetry Culling The Best Of Her Past Work As Well As Some More Of Her Newer Writing, Touches Upon Dimension And Parameters Of Life, Issues And Emotions That Are Experienced By People The World Over, Whether They'Re Red, Black, White Or Brown.
