The story of man’s evolution revolves round a twist of primitiveness and civilization in successive cycles permeated by intolerance, dominance, horror, wars, and death. Hardly is there any time in the history of man that there is no war or conflict of some sort. Peace has largely eluded man.
The book Broken Lamp is a collection of poems which captures the state of our world; a world besieged by greed, aggression, materialism, idolatry, dominance and bloodshed. It brings to the fore the intrigues of the course of humanity severely perverted and on a path to collision and catastrophe, and there seems to be no relief in sight.
In Broken Lamp, the author attempts to X-ray the contused face of our world. The result shows broken pieces of bones mixed with shreds of flesh and clotted blood. The diagnosis is clinically tagged brokenness. The prescription is a mind- mending therapy coated with songs and packaged in a 146 page recipe labelled Broken Lamp. Would you want to help our world out of the chaos? Then read this piece of literary tonic and impressive poetic masterpiece.
