In The Opposite Bank and Other Poems by poet Ramchandra Pramanik, the translated poems are primarily selections from his two volumes of poetry Ushri Pare Ratri and Madhuram. Sreejata Paul’s skilled translations of Pramanik’s nuanced poetry, opens up new vistas of poetic expression, that adroitly combines sense and sensibility, wit and irony, philosophical and caustic reflections about the world and the self trapped within the unpredictable world of indeterminism. Pramanik’s poems are often brief, like master strokes of a paint brush that recount stories of the past as well as inscribe the present. His three ‘Tiger’ poems and the three-part ‘Poetry of Contemplation’ along with ‘Missed Call’, ‘Daydream’ and ‘Metamorphosis’ among many others, span a wide trajectory, from the empirical to the ontological, with noticeable poetic elan. The following lines prove the skills of both poet Ramchandra Pramanik and his translator Sreejata Paul- Are laughter and joy sisters? What a juxtaposition! Perhaps co-wives? Daggers drawn!
