"Let us lean

on compassion,

but drink to the pain

that made us more resilient than yesterday."

Thrown into isolation, we all found our lives reduced to the walls that surrounded us. Yet through the darkness, poet Abhra Pal was committed to finding the light which transcends all barriers. Birthed from these lockdowns, this debut poetry collection introduces us to a fresh new voice that is introspective, tender, and empathetic.

This book is for you if you've ever felt consumed by love, loneliness, or grief -- a timely reminder that you can both feel deeply and live fully.
