Dr. Bharat Thakkar is a highly regarded engineer, quality control expert and popular teacher by profession. By disposition and output he is a widely read poet, both in his mother tongue Gujarati and English.
Professor Thakkar is also a consummate raconteur. Over a career spanning 45 years he has written extensively both as an engineering mind and a poetic soul.
Magodi Mystic is his second collection of poems in English. The first one was Humming Horizons in 1995. During the intervening 17 years Professor Thakka has been busy with his professional life even as he has quietly created Magodi Mystic, often while traveling by train from Wheaton to Chicago for work.
Magodi Mystic reads like a much more determined reflection on a life well spent. It is particularly gratifying that he has kept his passion to write alive all these years in the face of a professional calling that is rather unforgiving of flights of fancy.
- Sam Pitroda, Advisor to the Prime Minister of India
Mysticism, spirituality, love, and an eye for beauty hidden in plain sight make Thakkar a poet worth reading.
- Kevin Sorbello, Editor, New Poets Press
The hyacinths of love, pictorial elements and mystical touches bloom in Magodi Mystic in an impressive array of the poets craftsmanship.
- Dr. Stephen Gill, Poet Laureate of Ansted University
