Melody of Wounds: Revealing The Wounds on Civilization

Nar Deo Sharma, the poet translator and critic of par-excellence is distinguished for scaling the literary work from the stand-point of linguistic and stylistic analysis. Melody of Wounds is the maiden collection of poet Nar Deo Sharma in which he has attempted hard to reveal the evils prevalent in the society i.e. corruption, greed, altruism, hypocrisy, spiritless ness, injustice, moral turpitude, hollowness of rituals, and debasing of human values. Nar Deo Sharma has tried to take out the wounds on the civilization which had been so ancient and glorious. The collection may be termed as the preventing agency of ills and chaos waving in atmosphere. He has used his sharp intellect to explore these wounds. Yet the word ‘Melody’ in the title of the book appears to make us feel that the poet is still hopeful to win the battle against these prevalent ills of the society.
