This anthology consists of 70 poems taking deep inspiration from nature and personifying it to express subtle emotions and moments from daily life. The poetry presented deals with everyday happenings around us. The poet finds comfort in seeking hope and believing in a purpose for life. Though finding a purpose is itself a lucky chance, once a soul finds it, then for the poet comes the real brunt of daily consistent hard work. It's this hard work which makes an individual humble and often finds oneself on a less crowded path. This journey, which is not easy, makes us very sensitive to the struggles of others and develops a sense of empathy. It also helps bond with others who are on such journeys. Kartikey’s poems find such a connection deeply with nature which is consistent on this journey of change. The soul of nature has a purpose and is honest. Kartikey’s poems try to find a bond with these kinds of souls. It is when this group of souls is formed, it is true happiness for the poet

WINNER OF THE FORTNUM & MASON FOOD AND DRINK AWARDS DEBUT DRINK BOOK OF THE YEAR 2019 WINNER OF THE LOUIS ROEDERER INTERNATIONAL WINE BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD 2018 'Wine is alive, ageing and changing, but it's also a triumph over death. These grapes should rot. Instead they ferment. What better magic potion could there be, to convey us to the past?' Impelled by a dual thirst, for wine and for knowledge, Nina Caplan follows the vine into the past, wandering from Champagne's ancient chalk to the mountains of Campania, via the crumbling Roman ruins that flank the river Rhône and the remote slopes of Priorat in Catalonia. She meets people whose character, stubbornness and sometimes, borderline craziness makes their wine great: an intrepid Englishman planting on rabbit-infested Downs, a glamorous eagle-chasing Spaniard and an Italian lawyer obsessed with reviving Falernian, legendary wine of the Romans. In the course of her travels, she drinks a lot and learns a lot: about dead conquerors and living wines, forgotten zealots and – in vino veritas, as Pliny said – about herself. In this lyrical and charming book, Nina Caplan drinks in order to remember and travels in order to understand the meaning of home. This is narrative travel writing at its best.
