Somewhere, It Must Stay is a debut collection of fifty poems that did not begin as literature - they began as necessity. Written from the edge of endurance, these poems move through grief and defiance, through love that finds no home, through faith examined and abandoned, through the strange quiet of a life lived entirely on its own terms. They are abstract without being distant, intellectual without being cold, and deeply personal without asking for your sympathy.
This is not poetry that holds your hand. It does not resolve neatly or offer easy comfort. What it offers instead is something rarer - the sensation of being inside another person's most private thoughts, completely unfiltered and completely alive.
Fifty poems. One unforgettable voice.
Somewhere, It Must Stay is the first volume in the Humahung series by Mrinal Das.
