The Labyrinth of Clouds

The Labyrinth of Clouds is a poetry book written by Nalini Dhiman. The name indicates an entanglement of clouds such as a meandering maze where the author needs to find her way out. The choice of words as the title can be linked to the authors fascination with clouds. Her phones gallery is full of photographs of different formations of clouds that she sees. We all feel lost sometimes and yearn to find our way out of the messy tunnels. Sometimes we feel lost even the places we love the most. For the author she uses clouds as an image of how lost she feels even in the world she has created for herself a world she loves. This book ranges from Odes to imagery poetry motivating to demotivating poetry. Reading the words is easy but what matters is reading between the lines because every poet hides meaning behind the words. Thus The Labyrinth of Clouds is a book that shows how confusing everything can be but in the end what matters is appreciation of love in life and finding ones purpose.
