- Blurb of the Book -
Humans are persuaded to depend on fellow humans. By forgetting that everyone is an individual and diverse. Expecting someone to support us in our crucial time is like putting our vigour in question. By the time we realize this, it will be too late.
The package of poems in this book reflects humans darkest emotions. It travels with you by joining hands in the relay of fragile souls seeking illumination. It depicts how nature plays important role in every stage of a human's life especially during an emotional breakdown. I hope my poems will bring a spark of light inside you. Thanks for reading my book.

Firstly, I would convey my heartfelt gratitude to the writer for giving me an opportunity to read such a beautiful collection of poems.
The Masked Nudes has to be one of the most wonderful book titles I have ever come across recently. The name itself captures the facades we all create to go out in the world, only to bare ourselves from within. I am in awe of the verses. Period.
The first thing that I loved about The Masked Nudes was the sheer simplicity that blooms throughout the writing. It is indeed admirable how well the writer depicts the myriad hues of life with a kind of coherence that will certainly move you in one way or another. Moreover, the unabashed subjectivity that proliferates with each page is not merely relatable but also bold at the same time. Bold, as in its capability to express those very experiences you may have had at least once in your life, and bringing it forth right in front of your eyes. You will barely find such candour in contemporary poetry by budding Indian writers, and I must say that I am overwhelmed by it. I convey my best wishes to the poet for her future endeavours.
Lady Bookamore rates this book 4.5/5
