Synopsis

This new collection from distinguished New Delhi, India poet Amit Dayiyabadshah makes available to American audiences poems well-known to Indian audiences, such as The Last Will & Testament of the Tiger. It also contains much recent work on a variety of topics.

Amit Dahiyabadshah is a poet for everyone. This first American edition of Amit’s poetry has it all: from childhood among farmer-warriors, to his life in Delhi; from love for his family and land, to his deep respect for the Bengal Tiger; from tender love poems to compassion for all Earth’s beings, The Tiger Poet roars loud, clear, compassionate and thrilling!
—Billy Brown, host of Fixed & Free Poetry, Albuquerque, NM

Lamenting isolation and fear from the jaws of COVID, the inhumane threat to the sacred tiger, and the unyielding breadth of other human terrors, the poems in Tiger Poet implore with an intimate immediacy beyond the borders of a virus and the country of India. Each incantation roars in Dahiyabadshah’s undeniably sonorous voice, providing ample experience, “for what is a poem but a throat/ trembling/ with a secret or sacred truth.”
—Sandra Yannone, author of Boats for Women and host of Cultivating Voices Live Poetry

Amit Dahiyabadshah brings the low growl of the regal tiger, the defiant cry of long-suffering humanity, and the proud heritage of his farmer-warrior Jat people from mountainous northern India to our wide world in this stunning volume. Read this book and make a friend of Amit Dahiyabadshah. You’ll find no truer, no braver, no finer friend in this life. And you’ll find no finer poetry than the deftly blood-chilling, gently-touching and always courageous lines of The Tiger Poet. —Bill Nevins, NM-based poet, educator, and poetry editor of Logos: a Journal of Modern Society and Culture
