This book is written from the perception of a young woman.

It captures a wide range of emotions a person feels and how it affects their day-to-day life. It discusses being naïve and delves into one-sided love, heartbreak, fear, depression, anxiety, loneliness, and failures. It also speaks about hope, yearning, self-love, strength, being completely headstrong, forgiveness, falling in love, and success.

The question that arises is, how do the seasons of nature depict the phases of life of a woman? The answer is simple. Maybe it was on a warm Monday morning when she started splashing on the canvas set on her easel, and the idea of a solo journey enticed the young woman. A deeply embedded yearning came forth, and she fell in love.

Whilst some love interests might remain unrequited, insecurities and depression don’t leave anyone out. Some might even go further and seek answers from the divine.

And then one sudden night, a storm sets in, reeking of betrayal, hurt and fear. The hail wreaks havoc in her life, but she stands her ground. She doesn’t run for the shade and drenches herself, for the monsoon loved her insane.

She tries to find happiness amidst the chaos, but the old wounds open up and shake her core to crumble. Old memories come to haunt her at night and laugh at her naivety. Though she holds her head high and doesn’t stop by the end of the fall, she learns to love herself.

A mind is a fickle place that brings about the monstrosity of depression in her life like all the fight was for nothing; bound by anxiety and failures, she trips over her feet. Despite fate churning her life into unknown pits of hell, she finds herself all over again.

The winter comes to a surprising halt, and with a promise of return, he gives up his reins to the blooms of spring. Finally, she stumbles into the arms of a certain someone and falls head over heels. The path to contentment is a long one she tries to seek, escaping the jealous murmurs thrown her way. Love fills her heart with warmth. Her strength and hope act as her armour as success paves her way to the seashore. 

The ending hopes to steal the show by trying to connect with the readers on a deeper level. It hopes to give hope to everyone struggling with their life and trying hard to do better for themselves.

Above all, Blooms of Barren is for those who are healing and whoever needs healing.
