Reseña del libro "Seeking Solace: A book of wisdom and delight for the modern world (en Inglés)"
SEEKING SOLACE, a collection of poetry in free verse, encompasses and glorifies one of the most quintessential of human needs, self help. The poet, Nikhil Parekh, takes the view that in the current world scenario-disastrously fraught with terrorism, war, prejudice, unemployment of various kinds-if you want to help others, you must first help yourself. This is because positivity can diffuse efficaciously from a soul which is harmonious in itself with the spirit of victorious existence. Various of the poems embodied in this collection earnestly aim at applying the balm of uninhibited hope, optimistic enlightenment, righteous empowerment, and self-friendship upon humanity. Winner of a Proverse Publication Prize 2021. "Parekh is to poetry what superheroes are to Marvel and DC Comics." -- George Watt, 'Preface' to Seeking Solace. "The speaker, at once innocent and wise, crowds every line with logorrhoea, with words words words. He thus invites his audience to luxuriate in the sensual experience of listening, of being present in the present, of life lived in the now." -- Jason S Polley, Associate Professor, Department of English Language and Literature, Hong Kong Baptist University.
