One at a Time : A Poetic Journey into the Unconscious Mind

In Ishan Khurana’s debut poetry book One at a Time the author takes readers through the various stages of his life as he bares his soul through his words. The collection is made up of 25 poems that touch on the authors personal beliefs abstract concepts and delve on themes such as the three stages of being: birth life and death. While the collection is autobiographical in nature the author invites readers to engage in dialogue with the concepts brought forth and to reflect on what the collection means to them personally. Through his works the author also hopes to help readers become more aware of their thoughts and emotions so that they can better understand their inner self.
