About This Book

Grace and Mercy in Her Wild Hair: Selected Poems to the Mother Goddess
By Rāmaprasāda Sena (1718–1775)
Translated by Leonard Nathan & Clinton B. Seely
First published in 1982 by Great Eastern, Boulder, USA
Reprinted in 1999 by Hohm Press

A relic of Bengali devotional poetry, this collection unveils Ramprasad Sen’s fervent hymns to Kali—the dark Mother who governs cycles of birth and death. Each verse is a shard of wild mercy, translated with precision to preserve the poet’s mythic cadence. A legacy artifact for seekers of Shakti’s voice.
