About The Book

In this collection, Swati Chandorkar opens the doors of her mind and heart, presenting her thoughts and reflections in various forms—be it articles, poems, letters, or portraits. As she recites nursery rhymes to her granddaughter, her mind is struck by an entirely new perspective on these simple tunes. She also delves into the heavier thoughts of death, exploring the complexities of life and human emotions.

Swati reflects on the human mind, which is constantly filled with feelings, thoughts, people, relationships, and a rich tapestry of literary arts. At times, she immerses herself in the poetry of Shantabai, while at other times, she is lost in the memories of Arun Date. Through her writings, she shares the life lessons she has gained and lost, especially in her conversations with her husband, where she discusses not only his personality but her own as well.

In her introspective journey, Swati contemplates the essence of Krishna’s inner self, while also finding herself drawn to the book of Chandramohan. Her heartfelt letters to Sunil Mehta are filled with affection and deep emotion, further reflecting her profound inner world.

The rhythm in Swati Tai’s writing keeps the reader engrossed and captivated, offering a reading experience that is both delightful and thought-provoking. Her words resonate with thoughtfulness and emotion, inviting readers to connect deeply with her reflections on life, love, and the human experience.
