About the Book
`Soliloquies in Solitude' is an analytical commentary on the P. Solomon Raj's verse in his Nineties. A globally reputed artist and theologian, propounding incarnation of the Gospel in Indian culture, Solomon's poetry as a nonagenarian continues to be a sharp tool of expression of Christian Faith and Living vis-a-vis his present poetry pregnant with Indigenous Philosophizing. Having done extensive research on the art and poetry of Solomon Raj, it is commendable that B. S. Moses Kumar presents this commentary, appending the corpus of Solomon's writings, which are otherwise unavailable to the reading public. The book is a delight for readers as it pointedly depicts Cultural, Natural, Existential, Philosophical and Christian Themes among others.
