Opportunists Steal Your Thunder, by CHARAL, is a Bengali poetry collection from India, translated by Sipra Mukherjee, published by Tilted Axis Press in 2023. It is a contemporary Bengali collection whose title has the snap of accusation, public speech, and stolen weather. I would not approach it as a book that needs to be solved before it can begin working. Start with the title, the pressure of the translated line, and the feeling of a voice making room for itself in English. The value here is not just metadata or representation, but the chance to let one poet’s particular difficulty create its own weather.

If you’d like to see international poetry continue and gain traction, consider requesting this work from your local library, or purchasing it from places like Open Books (a poetry only bookstore), Asterism Books (an independent press distributor), or bookshop.org to connect you with your local bookstores.
