Book review
In this new edition of Mappings, Vikram Seth’s first book of poems and one that has long been out of print, the reader is introduced to work written in the author’s twenties, when he was a student in England and later, California. More immediate if less polished than his later work, these poems enchant and impress with their classical learning, wit, perceptiveness and lyricism—all facets of Vikram Seth’s now celebrated poetic achievement.
