Publisher's Synopsis
In A Scarlet Thread in a Sober Skein, Nithila K Shankar weaves a tapestry of poetry that delves into the paradoxes of human nature-the quiet and the chaos, the yearning and the resignation, the luminous and the shadowed. Each verse is a thread, bold or subdued, binding together the contradictions that define us. With keen perception and lyrical grace, this collection explores the fragile threads of connection, the weight of solitude, and the relentless pulse of desire that runs beneath even the most tempered exteriors. A meditation on what it means to be human, this book invites you to unravel, reflect, and find yourself in its woven words.
