Love and a Thousand Questions Priyanka Roy Bhattacharya

Love and a Thousand Questions is a collection of poems that deals with love, joy and longing with the concomitant feelings of loneliness and despair. The poems in this book explore how love can be an empowering concept in 'Crochet', the sweet heady feeling of meeting a loved one after a day's long wait in 'Restless Night', the sinking feeling of losing a loved one in 'Cocktail', or, how destructive a loss of self-love and appreciation can be in 'Pillars of Doubt'. But the nature of love is such that it shows up again and again in our lives, which fills our heart with hope and replaces hastiness with patience in 'My Clarity'. The book attempts to show how love springs unbeknownst to one and chafes the mind with a thousand questions. Hope is always round the corner for the love-struck but holding on to it can be a tricky affair. Love and a Thousand Questions portray the ebb and flow of fragile emotions.
