Strawberries Under Skin: Poems

Readers will simmer with love and burn with heartbreak with the honeyed narrative and soft-spoken rhetoric of Strawberries Under Skin. Niharika Shah's personal journey through love, loss, and change encapsulate the ebb and flow of life's transitions, as she opens herself to growth and self-discovery. Her vulnerable poetry uses stylistic choices, complex structures, and rhythmic details to recount the highs and lows of falling in love, falling out of it, and repeating the cycle within yourself. From exploring the limits of intimacy to empowering her definitions of femininity, Shah speaks to the beginning, middle, and end of life's many challenges. She invites you to seek refuge from its consuming anxiety, turbulent relationships, and the unquenchable darkness that haunts each of us. But with a 'love conquers all' attitude, Shah gives credence that you'll find the warm, assuring glow at the end of the tunnel.
