“This collection features stories that eloquently depict the joys and sorrows within women’s hearts. The stories illuminate the constricted mindset and ego of men, as well as feminist perspectives and selfishness, effectively conducting an incisive examination of our society.” - Krishna Bajgain, Samakalin Sahitya
“The collection beautifully weaves together the tales of Nepali immigrants, exploring their complex mindset, nostalgia, challenges of living abroad, vulnerability, aspirations, conflicts, feminist perspectives, regrets, love, jealousy, repentance, sacrifice, dreams, and anxieties.” - Khusi Limbu, NepalBritain.com
“Swechcha masterfully weaves her narratives and imaginations into a patchwork of words. Each story resembles a finely crafted sketch, brought to life through the art of words.” - Mani Lohani, Writer, Madhuparka literary magazine
“The stories within the book defy the reader’s initial assumptions. Numerous narratives hold unexpected twists that catch readers off guard, adding a layer of intrigue and highlighting the captivating essence of Sangita’s storytelling.” - Shekhar Kharel, Writer and Documentary Filmmaker
“The ebb and flow between stories was different every time, some leading straight into the next while others needing space to sit and linger. A wonderful insight into cultural differences on a highly personal and intimate level.” - Jessica Hayden, Editor
