Publisher’s foreword:

“When Amrita Chitkariya first sent me her poems, I was immediately struck by her fierce independence of thought. Here was a teenager, unabashed by free expression, with a story to tell.

Her emotions were honest and from the heart; outpourings of teenage angst, separation anxiety, heartache, the first stirrings of love, bitterness, betrayal, life’s lessons and existential questions. Our conversations between Dehradun and Bangalore could have taken place anywhere and would still have rung true. “Anyone there?” is a question that every teenager across the world has reached out with while grappling with an emerging sense of self. All they need is a kind ear. Thank you for listening.”
