"Artful Design" American Poet and Former Erie, Pa Poet Laureate's Amazon review of Yuyutsu Sharma's Lost Horoscope




 Artful Design

Consider the presentation of Yuyutsu Sharma's "Lost Horoscope", an artful design. 

A slim volume in a sturdy hardcover, divided into three nicely diverse parts, each with its own title, 

each part, and in fact the whole collection, comfortably sized to be read whole, 

like three sides of a vinyl record.

--Charles Joy

"The sheer range is like a spectrum that incarnates divinity." Indian poet and scholar Divya Joshi's Amazon Review of "Lost Horoscope"

Infused with stimulating wisdom, splendid craft and profuse imagery

https://www.amazon.com/dp/8195781632?ref=myi_title_dp



A phenomenal bunch of poems that heal, inspire and rehabilitate. 
Right from the sacred cover that asks to hold mind steadfastly to the feet of guru, the poems descend like salubrious air and the “jasmine jewels” “lost in the horoscope” spring “out again” to spread and sprinkle brilliance and magnificence. The images and metaphors amazingly fulfill their spiritual goals by expressing, through multiple forms “a scroll of a scented /homemade paper /tied up in a vermilion thread “of faith and culture.
The structure captivates and drips down “through the dank drawers” to a “dingy world of Punjabi town”. Also comes along a risk of life, a “decadence of beliefs”, of “prophecies being true”.

 The sheer range is like a spectrum that incarnates divinity. Poems like the “Lost Horoscope” and “Where would my story end?” come once in million years.
 Fascinating must read masterpiece!!!
