Ninad Pradhan works as an engineering researcher but has experimented with poetry for several more years. He enjoys the parallels between the two endeavors - both challenge an individual to venture into the unknown, and lend expression to what they discover. This selection of poems spans two decades, up to 2007. His poetry has been deeply influenced by social issues and by his understanding of - and often dissatisfaction with - the status quo. This is evidenced by poems such as Cocoon, A Question of Faith, Revolution, and Revolution- Requiem. The second recurring theme in his writing is an attempt to understand artistic expression itself. The Artist, The Wizard, and Resurrection are examples of poems in this volume which explore creativity. These themes sometimes meet, and at other times mix with other ideas. The resultant work is a presentation of thoughts, and hopefully, a fruitful attempt to engage the reader in dialogue.
