By the doorways of womanhood: The poetry of Kashiana Singh
Kashiana Singh’s poetry collection Woman by the Door is an exquisite intersection of the blossoming, enduring strength of women, the struggle of rebirth, and the existence with death and loss… through which Singh points us to a sure and certain hope: within ourselves. By Melissa A. Chappell
Short story by Debi Mukherjee: “Unlike the little girls I see outside temples, draped in their pano bhaju’s stringing garlands of Marigolds, I dare not play with the flowers in our garden. Papa cautions me against the rows of Mogras, Shoe-flowers, Frangipanis and a multitude of others. He says that I must not be lured by a flower’s fragrance.”
