Nilmani Phookan has a distinctive voice of his own rooted in humanism. His poetry is a conscious arrangement and composition of perceptions trimmed to the core. Freshness of imagery, simplicity and restraint of diction, compactness of frames and designs, permeation of music and suggestive excellence are unique traits of his poetry that can stir any generation of aesthetes. The encapsulating poems in this selected collection, encompassing varied forms, colours and tones, are set to transcend their confines for a wider acquaintance.
