About the Book
 
Like Jahan’s previous work, this collection takes the reader on a journey of self-discovery, unexpected victories, and heartbreaking failures—but a journey that is sure to encourage readers to reflect on the varied paths they may have taken in their own lives.
Jahan’s signature style of storytelling through a remarkable economy of words continues to leave the reader with more questions than answers, perhaps—and maybe that is what the author really wants: not only an exploration of the world outside of us, but rather the more challenging and intimidating task of looking within and recognizing our bruised and beautiful selves.
This collection speaks, in equal measure, of hope and hopelessness, love and longing, despair and resilience, the beauty of the past and the dreams of the future—and all of those seemingly mundane and insignificant things that make life truly worth living.
