What is the essence of a poem?
Through the act of translating a poem by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and situating it in the forests of Mumbai, discover what the essence of a poem could mean. Explore notions of rhythm, sound, musicality, and also the association of images. Grab that pen and let your imagination fly even though ‘the birds in the forest are silent’.
