Sri Aurobindo

Letters of Sri Aurobindo

SABCL 26

Fragment ID: 7889

Q: A great bother and an uninteresting business, this chiselling, I find. But perhaps it is very pleasant to you, as you cast and recast ad infinitum, we hear, poetry or prose.

A: Poetry only, not prose. And in poetry only one poem Savitri. My own other poems are written off at once and if any changes are to be made it is done the same day or the next day and very rapidly done.
