Why this book should exist

This book exists because I wanted to tell a story that sits closely with human emotion and inner experience, and to explore the different ways people are shaped by what they go through.

The promise

My hope is that, by the end of this book, readers will have seen life through perspectives different from their own and come away with a more reflective sense of how complex and layered human emotions can be.
