Are you in Mumbai this Thursday 22nd March?

If yes, then you can attend a Poetry Reading by VIVEK NARAYANAN on 22nd March at 6.15pm at Theosophy Hall (3rd floor), 40 New Marine Lines, Churchgate, Bombay 400 020

Vivek Narayanan will read from his new collection of poems, Universal Beach (2006), his reading conducted in the mode of performance with which he has come to be associated in literary circles. His presentation will weave together three elements: his own reading/ performance; a reflection on the practice of performance in the context of poetry; and recordings from other poets, which Narayanan will annotate.

Vivek Narayanan was born in Ranchi in 1972, grew up in Zambia, studied in the USA, and is currently based in New Delhi, where he works with SARAI, a new-media initiative of the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies (CSDS). His poems have appeared in Indian and international journals and anthologies since 1994. Universal Beach is his first collection.

The name "Bombay" was derived from 'Bom Bahia' (The Good Bay),

.... a name given by Portuguese sailor Francis Almeida, in 1508 ....“Bounce back Mumbai” .....as it is called by the locals, it is a city that has been through a lot in the recent past – floods, bomb blasts, riots – and come out stronger each time.
