Teenoli: Three Lines, Infinite Worlds

Teen Eke Teen, a poetry collection by Nilima Phatak, introduces Teenoli a distinctive new poetic form of three-line poems rooted in Marathi literary sensibility.

Each Teenoli is complete in itself, yet together they form a cohesive and layered poetic experience.

While the form may occasionally echo certain aesthetic qualities of haiku, it stands apart as an independent and original experiment in contemporary Marathi poetry.

This programme brings the book alive through poetry recitation, allowing audiences to experience the rhythm, emotion, and immediacy of Teenoli, followed by a discussion on the creative process behind the book its form, intent, and evolution.

Dr. Kiran Kulkarni, Secretary of the Marathi Language Department and Cultural Affairs, Government of Maharashtra, enriches the book with a perceptive foreword that critically engages with the form, while affirming its significance in nurturing innovation within Marathi poetry.

Join us to listen to three lines unfold into many meanings and witness a new poetic form finding its voice.
