TDW Productions & Publishing is delighted to share Echoes of Silence, a deeply reflective collection of 46 poems by Dr. Raj Velamoor—psychiatrist, public intellectual, and poet whose life journeys across India, England, and Canada shape every verse.
A Poet with a Clinician’s Eye and a Philosopher’s Heart
In Echoes of Silence, Dr. Velamoor blends clinical insight with lyrical expression. With decades of global experience in psychiatry and public discourse, he writes as a psychartist—an artist of the mind—translating human complexity into emotionally resonant poetry.
His verses explore the silences that shape identity, migration, memory, and healing—not as abstractions, but as lived experiences. His psychiatric sensibility lends clarity, while his philosophical perspective deepens emotional resonance. As he notes:
“Poetry teaches you to place each word carefully… say more with less.”
What Sets Echoes of Silence Apart?
Structured across seven thematic sections, the collection journeys from reflections on nationhood and migration to intimate portraits of family, illness, caregiving, and quiet resilience. Each poem serves as an ode—to people, places, and moments that shape a life.
His poetic style is defined by:
- Minimalist rhythm with emotional depth
- Clinical precision with reflective grace
- Philosophical insight grounded in lived experience
As a psychiatrist, he understands the silences of the mind. As a poet, he gives those silences voice.
Dr. Raj Velamoor’s distinguished career spans psychiatry, literature, and public thought leadership. Having practiced in Canada, the US, New Zealand, and Bermuda, he brings a global consciousness to his writing. His novel The Reunion was honored at literary festivals in London, New York, and Los Angeles.
With Echoes of Silence, he continues his exploration of the human condition—offering poetry that serves as both mirror and medicine.
