New Delhi, April 23 : Clouds peck on vapour in the noonday sun/A day will come when rocks will/disappear/I want to save some rock/seeds against that time/If mountains moved, theyd take a/thousand years for each step/The step/would be no bigger for a mountain than/a step for an ant.
From the pen of one of the gentlest, most profound writers of our times comes "A Silent Place" by Vinod Kumar Shukla, translated from the Hindi by Satti Khanna (Eka), novel about a forest that has been stunned into silence by grief.
