Multicultural Meditations
We bet that Sujata Bhatt has gone through a lot of passports in her life. Born in India, educated in the U.S., employed in Canada, the U.K., and Germany, she uses her global perspective to inform her poetry. Through all her travels, though, Bhatt remains true to her roots in Gujarat and India. You can catch glimpses of her homeland in the imagery and references in her poems, like "A Different History," "The Stare," or "The Stinking Rose."
