520 _aHome, the most human essential phenomenon plays a vital role as it is not only a flourishing bed of childhood, youthful days, adulthood and old age for rest, repose, security and warmth but also encounters all the under-currents of individual life. This book proposes to study the poetry of Donald Hall, Tess Gallagher, Rita Dove, A.K. Ramanujan, Jayanta Mahapatra and Kamala Das, the six major voices of both contemporary American and Indian poetry in English with a view to identifying the significance of home and home-bound vision. The poets chosen for the book create an awareness in their countries to strengthen the home in this age of homelessness. Each poet strongly posits his/her own insight and inwardness to home and nuclear family to curtail the long-debated crisis.
