Saqti Mohanty (1974) has his own inimitable ways of seeing things. Time, instincts, relationships are the ingredients of true joys in his literary recipes. Loved for his rich metaphors and similes, Mr. Mohanty has many regional and national recognitions. He has one novel, a short story collection and four poetry anthologies to his credit. It is essentially the ceaseless journey from the domain of realities to that of desires, dreams and fantasies, the deep urge to stay there but the inevitable return that his writings reflect with strings of striking ability. Presently he is teaching Physics and lives in Bhubaneswar.
