About This Book

Divinity will guide youLet her be a little less human, a little more divine.Coming of age in cosmos and chaos, follow the inspirational journey of a young girl into fearless womanhood guided by powerful deities along the way. We'll meet Kali, the goddess of death and time who is also a strong mother figure; Saraswati, the goddess of learning, without whom we are only confusion; Parvati, goddess of love, power, and renewal, who can embody many forms when her emotions overtake her. Astrology, spirituality and beauty come together as a gift from the universe to help navigate through love, loss, death and life. As Gill masterfully imagines miracles and myths anew, we are shown how to embrace the wild, seek peace after partition and find a way to heal divides with divinity. Complete with beautiful hand-drawn illustrations, this deeply personal and politically-resonant poetry weaves ancient tales into a magical and potent tonic for our times.
