“I read some of the poetic verses from the book and I liked the verses…”Dr A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, Scientist, Poet, Visionary & Former President of India“This exploration of the infinity beyond makes K.P. Shashidharan to voyage into the Milky Way and the infinity within into the worlds of human beings that are so complex and enchanting at the same time. This collection of poems is an important addition to the world of poetry.”Dr. H. K. Kaul, President, The Poetry Society (India)“One feels a catharsis leading to a ‘calm of mind’ after reading the three books of verses. A masterpiece of creative imagination!”Nirmal Kanti Bhattacharjee, Critic & Director, K. K. Birla Foundation‘‘The fusion of colours, music, dance, lyrics, songs, rhyme, rhythm and melody in Painting Symphony is magnificent and the exotic fiction in verses will surely elevate modern English poetry to new realm of glory. The collection despite its romanticism, lyricism and use of allusions takes its readers to a plane of reality where the good and the bad, the bold and the beautiful, the white and the black co-exist. The volume will be a valuable addition to the gamut of literature of Indians writing in English.’’K. K.
