"The Etymology of Praying to the Porcelain Gods" refers to those moments when we are intoxicated and at our most vulnerable-hunched over a toilet, spewing out the remnants of our stomach's contents, and desperately hoping, almost dying, really, for a higher power to save us. This book is just that: a collection of poems that yearn for art, for fragility itself, to serve as a form of salvation during our adolescent years. Cheers to girlhood, liminality, and the diaspora experience.

With her eyes often toward the clouds and her soul in her words, her very being lies in both the abstract and the everyday. Her musings are in The Daily Star, Small World City, and EuroBangla Times. When she isn't daydreaming or scrawling in her notebook, she works as an IT intern, continuing her journey as a third culture child in the world's most liveable city-Vienna.
