Little Bit India, Little Bit USA
(1978)Remarkable Poems about Living in Two Worlds-from Indian to U.S.
A collection of poems by Soma Vira
For Soma Vira, poetry is exploring origins, from India to the United States - from her roots in an ancient country to life in New York City. She bridges the gap in our cultures. Witty, wistful, poignant, she shows us the dichotomy of the two worlds, yet their compatibility.
She's the right one to write about it, because as she says in one poem:
O', old is India and the new America
I'm a little bit old
and a little bit new
a little bit India
and a little bit U.S.A.
