Salman Rushdie uses magic realism in his novel Midnight's Children to tell the story of India's independence. The main character, Saleem Sinai, is born at midnight on August 15th, 1947, when India gains independence. He and other children born at that moment have special supernatural powers. Rushdie blends realistic historical events with magical elements to reflect how independence was experienced on an individual level. Saleem acts as a telepathic link between hundreds of children with gifts, trying to understand their purpose and connection to India's fate. Magic realism allows Rushdie to incorporate indigenous worldviews and critique the effects of colonialism on post-independence India.

Here are some letters from poets, writer, editors, and academics who appear interesting and worth keeping for memories to share—personal, professional, academic, and poetic—part interesting, part casual. It’s memory of not I, who wrote, but others who wrote me: together they could make up a ‘memoir’, providing the life experiences that might be of some value in contrast to what we experience now, or what was otherwise drab and dull in my own life. I sensed in them a nostalgic hangover, and a possible document of the past and the new in the making, useful to literary historians, researchers, scholars, and fellow poets and critics interested in my poetry and other writings of my correspondents. The letters, handwritten or typed and airmailed, make my own echoes: thrills of successes and search for meaning and purpose of doing what I had been doing in a mutually negating, intellectually sterile, and terribly restricted environment in my work .

Kamala Das was born in 1934 in Kerala, India to a family of poets. She was educated primarily at home. At age 15, she married an older banker, but found the marriage miserable due to her husband's indifference. She began writing poetry in secret to express her feminine experiences and protest women's subjugation in Indian society. Her unconventional poetry brought her fame and recognition as a leading Indian English poet. Throughout her life, she continued writing poetry, stories, and columns while battling illness to give voice to women's issues and promote their empowerment and freedom of expression.
Kamala Das was born in 1934 in Kerala, India to a family of poets. She was educated primarily at home due to frequent changes in schools. At age 15, she married an older bank officer, but found the marriage miserable due to her husband's indifference and abuse. She began writing poetry at a young age and found an outlet in writing about her experiences and feminine sensibility. Despite obstacles, her husband ultimately supported her writing career, which brought her international recognition as a pioneering female poet in India expressing themes of women's issues in a bold and unconventional style.
Confessional Manner in the Poetry of Kamala Das and Sylvia Plathijtsrd
Confessional poetry is a part of modern poetry. There is no place either for religion or morals in this poetry. The poet does not expect any redemption or retribution as there is no anguish. It is just, that they bare their soul to get a psychic relief. It is of some therapeutic value. The confessional poems are intensely personal, highly subjective. There is no ‘persona’ in the poems. ‘I’ in the poem is the poet and nobody else. The themes are nudely embarrassing and focus too exclusively upon the pain, anguish and ugliness of life at the cost of its pleasure and beauty. Md Sadruzzama Sadar | Prof. Dr. Vijoy Mishra "Confessional Manner in the Poetry of Kamala Das and Sylvia Plath" Published in International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (ijtsrd), ISSN: 2456-6470, Volume-7 | Issue-1 , February 2023, URL: https://www.ijtsrd.com/papers/ijtsrd52707.pdf Paper URL: https://www.ijtsrd.com/humanities-and-the-arts/english/52707/confessional-manner-in-the-poetry-of-kamala-das-and-sylvia-plath/md-sadruzzama-sadar
The poem describes the narrator's experience growing up as a Chinese American woman and her desire to be white. She felt pressure to conform to white beauty standards and tried to distance herself from her Chinese identity and culture. The poem explores themes of racism, exoticism, and the struggle to find her identity and fit into mainstream white culture as a woman of color.

South Asian-American Teen Poet Preeti Kulkarni Releases Debut Book of Poetry Flower Storms on the Riverbank
1. South Asian-American Teen Poet Preeti Kulkarni Releases Debut Book of
Poetry Flower Storms on the Riverbank
(1888 PressRelease -Free verse collection celebrates love, longing and the author’s South Asian-American
cultural identity. End Quote
GAITHERSBURG, Md. - Poets like Nikita Gill, Lang Leav, R.H. Sine, Rupi Kaur, and Nayyirah Waheed had a
deep impact on the young Preeti Kulkarni growing up. Now, she is following in their footsteps with her own
book of inspired free verse called Flower Storms on the Riverbank.
Ever since Preeti was little, she was fascinated by two things: why we are the way we are and stories. Every
night, she would ask her mom to tell her a bedtime story, and was enthralled by how the characters acted in
their little worlds. In some ways, their worlds helped her understand her own.
In Flower Storms on the Riverbank, illustrated throughout by Jasmine ‘Jaszy’ Smith, Preeti shares her
thoughts about her family, her South Asian-American cultural identity and even heartbreak. In her
straightforward and plaintive language, she asks the reader to read and reread the poems to find the deeper
meanings.
“I started writing at a very young age and it became an important outlet for me during a very difficult phase,”
explained Preeti. “I used writing then as a safe space to express my deepest feelings and continue to explore
my emotions through words. I hope readers enjoy discovering the layers and a different perspective of life in
the poems.”
Written with passion and unsparing honesty, Flower Storms on the Riverbank can be purchased online
through SDP Publishing, Amazon, Barnes and Noble and other retailers.
2. ABOUT THE AUTHOR— Fifteen-year-old Preeti Kulkarni has been writing from a very young age. Her
debut book of poetry, Flower Storms on the Riverbank was inspired by Rupi Kaur and other young Asian
authors. Preeti hopes to be a similar voice for other young people, as those authors were for her. To learn
more about Preeti, visit the author’s website at preetikulkarni.com.
