Memories Lounge spans the partitions of a woman's life: the development of her character and independence, the finding and discarding mates as well as married life, and her experiences as sister, daughter, and mother. This collection is a mosaic which includes references to current South Asian-American culture, Buddhism, fantasy and mythology, a bit of career advice, a good-bye letter to Bruce Wayne, a reply to a Rita Dove poem, and the thoughts of the last Neanderthal. Many of the poems center on specific women, and some are autobiographical. A quartet of poems refers to a sisterly relationship with a dying brother-in-law. Memories Lounge begins with a portrait of a young woman about to leave home and ends with another portrait of a mother watching her daughter leave. The progress of the poems in Memories Lounge illuminates the arc of womanhood.
