Category :"Poetry"
Daud Haider's poetry reveals that 'human condition, both body and soul, is destitute, haunted by loneliness, abused by despots and consumed by the ever-present fires of war.' He unforgettably describes the vivisection of living communities, massacre, famine, drought, flood, volcanoes and holocausts. His work is encircled with masterful use of Bengali metres, rhythms from traditional and modern nursery rhymes, and the effective combination of poetic diction and colloquial speech. According to Gunter Grass 'his poems are marked by direct experiences, sustained perplexity and exile.'
