The Earthen Flute, his 15th literary work, has been critically acclaimed by noted authors and poets.

K Satchidanandan, the globally acclaimed poet from India, has said, "“Sengupta has an uncanny way of mixing memory and myth. The earthly and the ethereal coalesce in these meditative poems to create a rare poetic experience.”
