The Four-Lettered Word by Saptaparna Roy
₹350.00
The Four-Lettered Word is an unflinching and luminously crafted poetry collection in which Saptaparna Roy explores the most intimate terrains of a woman’s life—memory, desire, grief, violence, silence, resilience, and the politics of the everyday. Rooted in lived experience yet expansive in its reach, the poems move across personal, familial and collective histories, touching on fathers and daughters, abandoned children, violated bodies, forgotten women, mythic mothers, and the shifting landscapes of Kolkata and Borderless Bangla. With searing honesty and a rare command over emotional and psychological subtlety, Roy examines the fractures and flames of womanhood, the negotiations between pain and survival, the inherited weight of generations, and the quiet, stubborn acts of becoming. Brutal in truth yet tender in insight, this book is a profound testament to the courage of speaking, remembering and reclaiming. A formidable debut that marks Saptaparna Roy as an important contemporary poetic voice.
