Swarodaya: It is an English translation of Banshidhar Sarangi's Sahitya Akademi award-winning Odia poetry collection. The poems in this book generate a new voice of optimism through a revelation of the art of living, and the background of his tradition. The realisation of the wonderfulness of expression that transports poems to the level of Dhwani is unique. The lines of the poems are conversational, but one does not know when these lines transform themselves into extraordinary expressions. A mysterious revelation of the connection of the mortal with the immortal, this gross world with the ethereal world often overwhelms the readers. The quest of Savari Carya that continues through Chhaya Darshana and Sunya Samhita and Other Poems can also be perceived in Swarodaya.
Banshidhar Sarangi (1940, Odisha): A retired Reader in Odia with more than twelve poetry collections, four books translated into English and Hindi, seven books on critical editing and text book editing, he is a recipient of many awards including the Sahitya Akademi Award for poetry. With his penetrating vision and sensitive heart that enable him to transform ordinary experiences into extraordinary observations, Banshidhar Sarangi stands supreme as an Odia poet. Redefining myths and traditions in the context of contemporariness, he not only excels as a worthy inheritor of Odia poetic legacy, he also offers Odia poetry a new dimension and dynamism in the backdrop of Indian poetry.
