Give one example each of visual imagery,sound imagery and taste imagery from the poem punishment in kindergarten
Answers
Kamala Das was born in Punnayurkulam, Kerala in 1934. Kamala spent several years in Calcutta, where she went to Catholic schools. She was married fairly early, before she finished her college. So she happens to be the only leading Indian English poet without a degree to her name. She began writing early and published her first poems in The Indian P.E.N. The first volume of her Collected Poems published in 1984 won her the Sahitya Academy award for 1985. Kamala Das has been typecast as a confessional poet. It is her brutal frankness of her verse that shocked and attracted readers. Kamala writes about sexual frustration and desire, of the suffocation of an arranged love-less marriage, of numerous affairs, of the futility of lust, of the shame and sorrow of not finding love after repeated attempts, of the loneliness and neurosis that stalks women especially.
Analysis, Explanation and Theme of Punishment in Kindergarten By Kamala Das
The poem is warm and muffled, and recounts the picnic of the poetess at Victoria Gardens to which followed it (as Kamala Das tells us in her autobiography). She was all alone near the hedge, while other girls were playing at a distance. The poem demonstrates the poet’s capacity to smell the flowers as well as the pain of being slighted. It has hardly any suggested larger meaning.
