This is a debut book written by an Indian author named Kirti Vegad. "Selenophile: A Journey of Love to Self-Love Through Healing" is more than just a book with words on paper; it's a life that the author attempted to preserve in verse, divided into three sections: one about the dilemma of love and illusion. Second is about letting go and third is about healing. These poems attempt to convey that one should always strive for life's simplicity so that one can look at things fearlessly. This book will take you on a journey of self-love and healing through unexpected emotional turns. Although this book was written during her period of gloom and despair, it will shine light on the paths of individuals who have lost their spark in the dark. Anyone who wishes to delve into the beauty of pain and discover their peace of mind through poetry should read Selenophile.
