Perfect for you if...

  • You've felt the weight of family expectations and rigid cultural rules that prioritise reputation over your wellbeing.
  • You process trauma and healing through poetry and introspection rather than prose.
  • You're looking for honest, unflinching writing about mental health, identity, and breaking free from patriarchal control.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer narrative-driven storytelling with clear plot arcs over lyrical, fragmented verse.
  • You're not ready to engage with content centring sexual and psychological trauma in depth.
  • You're seeking a feel-good book rather than one that sits with difficult truths.

About this book

What Will People Say is a poetry collection that follows a South Asian woman's experiences as a daughter and daughter-in-law within a patriarchal family structure. The narrator navigates her life while seeking safety and autonomy, ultimately becoming her own hero. The collection addresses sexual and psychological trauma, as well as mental health concerns. Through these poems, the author explores moving beyond the anxiety of social judgment and familial expectations.
