being human

What makes us human? Regardless of colour, age, race, and ethnicity, we all have one thing in common: a heart shaped by our circumstances, which either softens or hardens us.

Abdulsamad S. M., in his debut poetry book, brings together a collection of these experiences in poems, reflections, illustrations, and conversations inspired by his own life.

The publication consists of five sections, mainly focused on self-acceptance, love, and grief, with closely related pieces organized to carry the reader through the emotional rollercoaster that comes with being human.
