Synopsis

Twiddling Thumbs is a collection of poems that explore a wide range of subject matter, and span a vast expanse of space and time: The plight of the underdogs in colonial and post-colonial Guyana (South America) and the privileged life in the land of plenty, Canada (North America). In language enriched with powerful imagery, the poet succinctly portrays, inter alia, the practices of the religious and social institutions of his two homelands. Kumar's witty style lightens the seriousness of some of the topics he delves into, with a tinge of humour. Other books by the writer: The Face that Smiles, 2000. Pure Gold, 2001. Caught in the Maelstrom Teenage Dilemma, 2005.
