Deluded (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Deluded is a raw, unflinching collection of poetry and prose that chronicles one woman's fight to hold on-to her children, her identity, and her voice-while navigating grief, displacement, and the fractures of a system that fails to listen.

Written as a living journal, these poems move between despair and defiance, silence and protest, love and loss. Sehgal writes from the margins of motherhood, migration, mental health, and survival, capturing the intimate cost of separation and the quiet resilience required to endure it. Her verses do not seek permission; they bear witness.

At once deeply personal and urgently political, Deluded interrogates labels, power, and the thin line between pain and perception. It asks uncomfortable questions about justice, belonging, and who is believed when a woman speaks-especially when she refuses to disappear.

This is not a polished narrative of recovery. It is a record of endurance.

A testament to love that persists.

A voice that refuses erasure.

Deluded will resonate with readers drawn to confessional poetry, feminist literature, and stories that challenge silence-reminding us that even in isolation, the act of writing can be an act of resistance.
