With his master strokes, Sengupta offers an all-pervasive analysis of the microcosm, his seemingly nonchalant style being the most powerful weapon to demolish our long-cherished views about human life: the claustrophobic existence in the City of Joy as depicted in The Bengali Phenomenon; the suffering of Christ in the time of crucifixion as written in Expressions; and the appalling lightlessness when shadows grow longer as portrayed in Illumination. Sengupta extends the metaphor of the book's title in some of the poems, emphasizing the essential loneliness of our existence when we speak to ourselves in prose or verse...we are compelled to realize how lonely we are yet how rich in poetry, and [Solitary Stillness] is a preparation of the voyage to meet the infinite with a poetic brush. -World Literature Today
