He was the one who was offered the first copy of the Indian edition of Poem Continuous - Reincarnated Expressions by Bibas Roychowdhury during the informal launch of the book at The Indian Coffee House, Calcutta. He is none other than Rahul Purkayastha, an established poet of contemporary Bengali literature. Im blessed with his remarks on my work. Dear friends, please, have a look: I am an ardent reader of Bibhas Roy Chowdhurys poetry. The beauty and lucidity of his verses amaze me; I lose myself in his lines and the mysterious rhythm they carry. I have read a few of your translated pieces, and am very happy to see that you have succeeded in touching the very soul of his creations- though, truly speaking, the soul of poetry is beyond the realms of human access. Our entire life is a journey in the pursuit of that soul. I am overwhelmed by the sincerity of your pursuit, the honesty of your effort. (Translated by Ananya Chatterjee) The original Bengali message runs as follows: আমি বিভাসের কবিতার এক অনুরাগী পাঠক। ওঁর কবিতার সৌন্দর্য ও সততা আমায় মুগ্ধ করে, আচ্ছন্ন রাখে ওঁর ভাষা ও ছন্দরহস্য। তোমার অনুবাদে কিছু কবিতা পড়লাম, তুমি ওঁর কবিতার আত্মাকে স্পর্শ করতে চেয়েছ দেখে খুবই ভালো লাগলো। যদিও কবিতার আত্মা স্পর্শ করার বাইরে। আমরা তাকে স্পর্শ করার চেষ্টা সারাজীবন ধরে করে চলি মাত্র। তোমার চেষ্টার সততা আমাকে অভিভূত করেছে।
