First published in hardback in India in 2017 by HarperCollins Publishers India.
Summary:
"In her third poetry collection, Tishani Doshi confronts violence against women, lending her resonant, lyrical voice to those who have endured abuse, and those who have been permanently silenced. The poems are steeped in the heat and danger of tsunami season, honoring the dead by celebrating survival. Doshi writes with love and reverence for that which thrives against the odds-- female desire, the power of refusal, and the aging body. Doshi reminds us that poetry, at its root, is song. In their praise and lament, ebbing and hopeful, these poems call out for truth and redemption"--Back cover.
