Summary: | The stories related to environmental history are myriad and multifaceted. The meandering maze of human destiny and its relationship to the environment weaves a magical and fascinating story every time a poet-artist like Sudeep Sen takes up his pen to write. If we go by the logic of the multiplicity of industrial ravages, we would not be surprised if the entire ecosystem and the earthly catalytic effects seem to be purposeless and doomed. But beyond that simple, calculative logic — what we see through poetry, art and literature is a constant and expansive effort to narrate stories — stories of how human beings got to this present catastrophe, and how they have had an indomitable effect on the surrounding ecological system and its corresponding geological age.
