Sonder by Abhinav Motiwal is a collection of deep, insightful poems about life. Each poem showcases the deep understanding and observation of the author about daily humanly struggles and happenings in the lives of every single being. Everyone has their own perspective and view points about a specific event and it's important to understand that everything that is happening to us is an opportunity to grow and gain wisdom.
The word 'Sonder' has its origins in neologism and was coined in 2012 by John Koenig. What does it mean? It is inspired by German sonder- special and French sonder-to probe. It has a very special meaning of the profound realisation that everyone, including strangers passed in the street have a life as complex as one's own.
The poems explore contrarian ideas or the flipside of reasoning or simply try making the mundane less so, weaving words in the process. While some poems tell a story, others are much removed and rely on the underlying tone to let the reader fire his imagination. In doing so, it creates a shared experience of putting connotation into the words but letting the reader discover their personal meanings within each poem- a mutual 'sonder' creation.
