Atasi Kusuma

ISBN NO-: 978-93-5850-677-8

From a remote rural village in Odisha to Nagpur, Maharashtra it has been a long journey spanning four decades for our poet Dr. Nirmal Kumar Nayak. His daily routine begins with literature and ends with literature too. He sees his poems through his breath, food, and sleep. He is relaxed through his literature also. His passion for worshiping goddess Saraswati to love the Odiya language, his motherland Odisha, and his mother tongue Odiya is unique. Realistic thoughts come through his pen to

describe mankind, relation, nature, and the human value of life. His poems and stories carry realistic view of the society, measure human values, emphasises relationship, beauty of nature, love and affection in the mankind. I hope his lonely creation in English titled “Atasi Kusum ”

will create more impact among readers in our society. I wish him all the best.
