Why I Scream In Verse
by Isha Snehal
Get your poetry fix with Isha Snehal's collection!
Why I Scream in Verse is a series of poems for the woman, for the society, for the self. It questions the norms and pushes the realities on the face, using sarcasm and rhymes. It is a quiet read to burn the fire in your belly and make your heart cringe at the short and crisp cynical verses.
A cup of coffee, Instagram and this little book will bring you to read it over and think it over of the things that are being done and that have been done. The last section resounds with the soul as those verses seek answers to some very important questions of our lives.
Give it a read and go on a bumpy ride.
