  • Abstract:
  • Kamala Das is a poet whom one can compare with no other contemporary Indian woman poets or poets of second sex who lived and wrote before her birth as her poetry is much unique and extraordinary with jet speed in themes, tone and the way she handled her method with polish and refinement.The poetry of Kamala Das attracts and calls for a special attention from all the quarters for what’s called “frankness”, “openness”, a sense of urgency over-powering and over-flowing the poems, her anguish and intense voice echoing for more freedom, the covert-tone of asking for due recognition for her individual personality and identity.
