The Onslaught Press, UK publishes The Eight-Eyed Lord of Kathmandu by Abhay K
About the Book
"In these rapturous poems Abhay K. catches
the allure & mystique of Kathmandu; its maze of medieval streets,
its thronged bazaars, its twilit courtyards.
We taste the aromas of its ancient alleyways & the drift of incense from its crumbling temples. We hear in them the raucous chant of its life. Abhay K. is the all-seeing eye, the seer who brings to light a city & its people with a rare immediacy of speech and a boundless imaginative empathy.
This young, visionary poet communes beautifully with his beloved Kathmandu in a superbly crafted, exquisitely achieved collection that chronicles the life and times of a city and a people."
"(A) splendid sequence of praise, dazzlement, and wonder." -- Vijay Seshadri, Winner, Pulitzer Prize for Poetry
The Book is available on the website of The Onslaught Press and from Amazon UK.

Mud Season Review carries poems of Abhay K on four leading personalities of Nepal
"Abhay K’s portraits of famous figures from Nepal contrast a modern poetic form with heroes—spiritual, poetic, and military—from the past. In Sanskrit, Siddhartha means “he who has achieved his goals/found the meaning of existence,”and as we read the summation of these lives, the personalities not speaking as much as being spoken for, the underlying question is: did they achieve their goals, did they find meaning in their lives?"- Rebecca Starks, Editor, Mud Season Review http://mudseasonreview.com/author/abhay-k/
