More immediate if less polished than his later work, these poems enchant and impress with their classical learning, wit, perceptiveness and lyricism-all facets of Vikram Seth’s now celebrated poetic achievement.ContentsPanipatSea and DesertA Winter WordDeparture LoungeQuaking BridgeSwitching OffSonnetGrand CanyonTo a Fellow-TravellerRakhiTomatoesHome Thoughts from the BayRainFrom the Memoirs of Babur, First Moghul Emperor of HindustanTo ManijehThe WalkersTime-ZonesAfter Three yearsFrom Mount TamalpaisThoughts White Travelling at NightAubadeThe Yellow CricketThe Sultan’s TurretAt EveningMoonless NightGuest The BalconyEven SuchClose of PlayLast NightParty for the Retirement of the Oldest-Serving British Museum Reading Room Book AttendantDubious BagatellesThe Tale of Melon CitySix OctetsDistressful HomonymsProgress ReportPoint ReyesSleep and DeathMappingsMothsDivaliA Morning WalkStump
