Impression


... Verses of the poet with some touch of existentialism affect the most dear, intimate and understandable for everyone the world of love. Aminur Rahman’s poetry wins the hearts immediately after the first reading. And often forever. An amazing mystery that permeates it, captures and leads deeper into the depths of meaning and rhythm. Mesmerizing is metaphor, strange, original, and in fact very oriental. – Victor A. Pogadaev
... Aminur, like an authentic translator, tied the knot between the original language and translated text, at
some points domesticated foreign content, and make it a new original. Keeping the original soul, changing the body, Aminur gives poetry ‘afterlife’ or ‘rebirth’ in his native Bangla language. He translated ... poems ... of different languages ... and the poesy-effect is well-maintained, the kinship of languages is astoundingly balanced, and foreign authors as well as their context is naturalized in Bangla and thereby brought in homeground.- Ahmed Tahsin Shams
