ABOUT Phanibhushan:
by Umanth bhattacharya,, Poet, Scholar , Critic
...' lefft his ancestral home , --behind and forever,--- yet brought his poetic soul studded with evergreen memories of CHILDHOOD. Thus his subsequent professional life or urbane living, could not eclipse the ' poet' in him.
In 1969 his first book of poem CACTUS was published with immediate success. In 1976, DWITYA BRITTA and 1977, --MON MAYUR came out.
Words or the medium of a language alone was soon found not enough to give expression to his many sided CREATIVE ideas. He took up another new medium i.e WASTE WOOD with their root , branches , cracks , holes , knots & twists, -- and through them --another world of intensely VISUAL and Creative..... Between 1979 and 1885 , had six Major EXHIBITIONs of NATIONAL level in CALCUTTA and DELHI with UN-parallel success and loudest possible acclaim from critics and public ( with out-flow in foreign Journals.)
The English translation and publication of his poems in prestigeous Editions like INDIAN VERSE (1979), THE ALBUM OF INTERNATIONAL POETS(1981) are yet other peaks and proof of his transcending the barrier of Language to reach the wide world.
