‘A ROLLERCOASTER JOY RIDE… Sunny Rain-n-Snow, the maiden collection of poetry by U Atreya Sarma, jolts you out of a dull reverie.’ – Sunil Sharma ‘Atreya Sarma is a culturally rooted yet genuinely contemporary urban poetic voice. Pure and unveiled in quality… most remarkable is his verbal felicity.’ – Ambika Ananth ‘An exciting journey into the diversity of life’s experiences.’ – Avril Meallem ‘Direct and frank… the style in tandem with the subjects he explores; sometimes irreverent, sometimes playful, sometimes thoughtful and reflective and sometimes audacious.’ – Charanjeet Kaur ‘His word power is immensely strong, trenchant and precise too.’ – Elanaaga (Surendra Nagaraju) ‘Elegant in imagery… the daily chores flesh out with economy and resonance.’ – Gopal Lahiri ‘An outstanding work of poetry meticulously curated, encompassing the relativity of relationships and their earthly moments and manifestations.’ – Kiriti Sengupta ‘He chooses his topics carefully and lavishes them with the attention they need, adroitly employing language that suits the setting.’ – Sanjeev Sethi ‘A vibrant debut collection from a seasoned writer and critic… showcasing experimental verse, linguistic play and nuances of Indian English.’ – Usha Kishore
