₹399.00
A Mountain on My Shoulder is a powerful collection of poetic meditations by Sara Hamid Hawass—brought to Bengali readers through a sensitive and evocative translation by Sudipta Chattopadhyay and Sreetanwi Chakraborty. This bilingual bridge between English and Bengali unveils a woman’s inner world, her memories, her rebellions, and the quiet storms she carries within. In these poems, myth blends with memory, sorrow blends with silence, and personal truth finds expression through vivid imagery. From reflections on identity and womanhood to intimate dialogues with nature, dreams, and ancestry, each poem unfolds like a delicate revelation. The voice is contemplative yet fierce, rooted yet unbound—filled with imagery of birds, clouds, rivers, shadows, and the timeless rhythm of life. The Bengali translation retains the lyrical precision and spiritual undertones of the original English text, making this book a rare, immersive reading experience for poetry lovers, translation enthusiasts, and readers who seek literature that heals, questions, and transforms.
