"The intensity, force, depth and lucidity of Anand Vishwanadha's poems defy the fact that "Moving On" is a debut collection. His poetry shows a contemporary sophistication in expression and imagery (truly characteristic of his poetic sensibility), yet sometimes symbolizes frailty , vulnerability and uncertainty – the absolute human side.
Adopting the techniques of allusiveness and multi-layered irony, he chronicles the the poignancy of love and mundane twists and turns of life, to convey his pertinent questions on and about life.
His poems -
convey empirical truths in words of elemental simplicity,
have philosophical mysteries ventilated from within,
are compellingly different, refusing to get tied down by conformist principles.
Some poems have a sense of movement , yet with a sort of rootedness and depth of thought – they justify the title – Moving On."
- Ambika Ananth, Chief Editor, Muse India
