Description:
In I Fear Nothing (Nothing But You), Nithila K Shankar crafts a searing, spellbinding tapestry of poetry that speaks to the silent fury, aching tenderness, and quiet power of girlhood and womanhood. From whispered defiance to thunderous rage, these poems explore the weight of generational silence, the violence of being seen and unseen, and the radical act of naming your own pain.
With voices that echo through myth, memory, and modern-day realities, this collection travels from the locked rooms of history to the open skies of resistance. Each poem is a reclamation-of voice, of body, of story. Whether she's speaking as Ophelia who lived, or as Iphigenia pleading with her father, Nithila's writing burns with clarity and courage.
This is not just a book of poetry. It is a rising-soft, sharp, and unforgettable.
