Clouds of the Sahyadri

In this collection of poems and essays, the writer gets nostalgic about Mumbai and recollects the various moods of the city that resonated with him, besides reminiscing about his various journeys around the city, particularly into the Sahyadri, or the Western Ghats. Steeped in history, and luxuriating in the largesse of the monsoons, the writer looks back at emotions laden with melancholic romanticism, while yearning for the evocative grey clouds and rains that are so intrinsic to the singularity that is the Sahyadri.
