Saudade: Letters I Wish I Sent

Saudade is the collection Gouri never planned on sharing. Written across her darkest years and the quiet after, these poems are addressed to the people who shaped her and the girl she used to be. Saudade means longing for someone, or something, or a version of yourself already gone, and that's exactly what this book holds. Nothing here has been softened or cleaned up. It's raw, unfiltered, and finally sent. If you've ever swallowed your own words instead of saying them, this collection might feel like it was written for you too.
