Dear Iris by Manasvini Duggal


 

About the book


Dear Iris” is a selected collection of the author’s experiences from their first year of adulthood. An anthology inspired by home, personal philosophies, a new city, and love, these poems tell a story of the quintessential teenage experience. Under the umbrella theme of a young adult’s first coming-
of-age experiences, the author uses subtle emotions and vivid imagery to present their thoughts. Deeply steeped in romanticism, each poem in “Dear Iris” summarises the author’s growth over twelve months, and the inevitable full circle that life brings about. The poignance of a sunset; the friction of moving on; the thrill of being alone in a strange city; the necessity to be open to love, pain, and guidance; “Dear Iris” is a raw exhibition of a teenager’s mistakes, exploration, and ultimate transcendence.
