I found a slim white volume that has sunk without a Nissim Ezekiel
trace in Mumbai's poetic spaces. It's called After
Kalinga and Other Poems and has been written by
Akil Contractor, a friend I haven't seen for many
years. When I met him last, he was running a
family business making ink; in between the
demands of manufacturing it, he found the time to
use some of it for his own poetry.
