How critics view the book:
Author Ravi Subramanian says, "The poems in Neethu Mohan's 'The Nord' are a joy to read. They are unfailingly positive and hope-inspiring. The poet's sense of wonderment as she looks at the world and life around her, is infectious. Her lines have a beguiling freshness too. Extremely comforting and energizing to read".
Dr. Brinda Bala Sreenivasan, poet, author and Head- Department of English & Foreign Languages at Cochin University of Science and Technology, says, "The quintessence of these poems is simplicity. Nord symbolizes positivity and the imagery is bright, often carrying a whiff of wild flowers. Neethu's diction embraces solitude like choir music heard from afar, slowly filling an entire valley."
