▶️Do you like reading poetry? I wanted to start with what happens when a poetry, a picture has an effect on you. How the words keep on coming, making you realise the feelings you have been running from. This book had that effect on me. It made me sit with the emotions and acknowledge them. @bukuagain Buku Sarkar’s My Dead Flowers is a deeply moving collection of poetry paired with evocative images that linger long after you’ve turned the last page. This book is not just a compilation of poems, it’s an emotional journey. Buku explores themes of love, loss, healing, longing, and the quiet beauty hidden in the unnoticed moments of everyday life. Her poems don’t just tell stories; they create moods. There’s a gentle rhythm in the way emotions rise and fall throughout the collection, making it feel like you’re moving through waves of memory and reflection. The poems also move across cities and spaces, turning urban life into a backdrop for memory and emotion. As both a poet and photographer, Buku Sarkar brings a visual sensibility to her writing, where the poems feel like captured moments rather than complete narratives. There’s also a sense of movement in her work, as emotions shift and evolve like memories in motion. At times, the fragmented nature of certain poems may feel open-ended, but this only adds to the book’s raw, unfinished beauty. Each poem carries a certain stillness, a moment to sit with, one that makes you pause and truly feel what’s being said. Buku’s writing style is magical, raw, intense, and deeply reflective, yet effortlessly relatable. She gently pulls you into a space of introspection. It’s the kind of poetry that finds you at the right moment and stays with you long after, inviting you to slow down.
