The Head And The Heart by Aishwarya Iyer (Paperback)

This collection of prose poems depicts the internal conflict of holding onto love despite the suffering it

causes. It emphasizes the difficulties of letting go of someone truly important, even when it is vital for

healing and growth. The protagonist's complicated emotions of love, sorrow, and desire offer a realistic

picture of her struggle to cope with acceptance of an unattainable love. Her inner anguish and unwavering desire for union are depicted in melancholic love letters laced with misery and loss, weaving together feelings of love, nostalgia, and the relentless chase of someone who is out of reach. As the protagonist navigates the stormy terrain of the heart, she confronts the cyclical nature of longing and disappointment, manifesting the universal realism that love is frequently accompanied by sorrow. It is a haunting portrayal of human fragility and the enduring, yet unparalleled power of HOPE in the face of heartbreak.
