_**About the Author**_
 Gauri Gharpure grew up in Ahmedabad in a bi-cultural household
and her Gujarati roots often overshadow her Maharashtrian genes. She studied journalism
at Columbia University, New York, on a Fulbright grant. This is her first collection
of poems. She tweets [@gaurigharpure](https://twitter.com/gaurigharpure).

_**About the Book**_
 In his foreword to the book, Manohar Shetty writes:

“Her searing, confessional style transcends conventional genres and hits you with
its brutal but controlled intensity and power. Her poems hold your attention with
their honesty and the total lack of frills and range from short haiku-like forms
to full-blown, free-ranging outpourings but with a tension-filled edge to them.”

_**Teaser**_

_Do snakes get depressed?_

Do snakes get depressed,
 do squirrels feel the urge to kill themselves, do birds
get mentally ill?

What is it in them that
 engrosses them in a constant, industrious, compulsive sense
of survival and what is it in us that makes us so weak?
