Kamala Das, in spite of her royal background, was a woman of spirit, a spirit which was like a sparrow, who can not be caged. It was the century when women of reputed families were not allowed to express publically their views or experiences related to ‘sex’, but Das wrote unflinchingly of her sexual encounters and that too in a period when women were treated not more than a pat animal. Kamala Das’s poetry can rightly be called her ‘poetic autobiography’ as it reveals all about her ideology, conception, psychology formation and her experiences. Her field gives immense knowledge about poetic genius.
