"THE CRY OF JOY" By Abhijit Maity

Life in all its forms is always in struggle. We strive for something, and something else turns up. The basic question is why do we not cease to live? The hope that we’ll be happy – tomorrow, or perhaps, the day after tomorrow – supplies us the energy to continue to live. But happiness is the rarest of all other achievements in life. What we actually get in its extreme is just an illusory version of happiness. The poems in this collection are about these human commonalities which confirm that our susceptibilities to pain and sufferings are inevitable and that we are not at the hand of any supple certainty. The poems imagine about the purpose of life, relationship, and the absence of deep trust in modern minds.


Abhijit Maity (b. 1992 –) grew up in a small village in West Bengal, India. In his childhood, he saw dire poverty in the family. His parents always support him to be courageous and self-dependent. In 2018, he completed an M. Phil on the short stories of Rudyard Kipling. He published many articles in academic journals. Now, he is a visiting lecturer in degree colleges. The Cry of Joy is his first published collection.
