A hundred years hence Who it is With such curiosity Reads my poems A hundred years hence! Shall I be able to send you An iota of joy of this fresh spring morning The flower that blooms today The songs that the birds sing The glow of today’s setting sun Filled with my feelings of love? Yet for a moment Open up your southern gate And take your seat at the window Look at the far horizon And visualize in your mind’s eye — One day a hundred years ago A restless ecstasy drifted from the skies And touched the heart of this world The early spring mad with joy Knew no bounds Spreading its restless wings The southern breeze blew Carrying the scent of flowers’ pollen All on a sudden soon They coloured the world with a youthful glow A hundred years ago. That day a young poet kept awake With an excited heart filled with songs With so much ardour Anxious to express so many things Like buds of flowers straining to bloom One day a hundred years ago.

In the Indian subcontinent, the political manoeuvre of the Partition led to a social calamity. The psychological trauma within the nation was caused by physical dislocation from one place and cultural adaptation in another. The memory related to the Partition thus involves violence, loss and terror as reflected in the post-Partition fictional, theatrical and poetic creations, whereas a focus on the post-Partition non-fictional Bangla memoirs tells a different story. In spite of the deep and definite sense of loss along with the trauma of being uprooted from one’s birthplace, the reveries associated with these memoirs appear resourceful in a constructive way, nourishing the creative soul of the writers. . For writers who are artists, such as Rani Chanda, Paritosh Sen and Manindra Gupta, the memories become visually eloquent and colourful and as a result the space itself is drawn as an artefact through imagistic language. Hence the space with its repository of lingering images emerges as a character and a source of rejuvenation.
