Hiraeth Mansi Narula

Hiraeth is a Welsh word or homesickness, or nostalgia, an earnest longing or desire, or a sense of regret.

'Hiraeth - A home that never was' by Mansi Narula Kashyap is a collection of poetry and prose about a home that the author believes does not exist in the real world but still cast a shadow or instil a sense of belongingness towards the same. Each poem will enhance the reader's imagination, coaxing them to understand the depth of a home that never was.

"For just a moment, my heart believes.

The home that never was,

Still makes me homesick.

I do not even remember when we started building it brick by brick?

The thieves have come and robbed us of all that we had,

Trust, loyalty and love are now just in twisted weaves."
