Under the Jackfruit Tree  (English, Hardcover, Nishita de)

Under the Jackfruit Tree is an unflinching collection of poetry where the author embeds decibel into her experience from a privileged but broken home, lyrically warring with complex trauma, letters to a child of divorce and abuse - amid a dissenting and feminist growth spurt. The book enlivens painful flashbacks, inner child healing and the revel in rebellion. The author’s quandary persists to exhibit what our community shares today: the struggle between Nature Vs Nurture. She further implores the act of meditating on generational wealth and to revisit legacy heirlooms that have exhausted their vitality. This book is from a Survivor and Thriver, for another Survivor to serve as a manifesto for the ultimate antidote: Hope. The healing must begin!
