Nikita Gill shares a collection of poems crafted as the world went into lockdown, tackles themes such as mental health and loneliness, and the precarity of hope. Through the life cycle of a star, she invites the reader to feel connected to the universe, taking us on a journey through the five stages of grief to the five stages of hope.

This collection includes the phenomenal “Love in the Time of Coronavirus,” which was shared across social media over 20,000 times, as well as Gill's poems of strength and hope, “How to Be Strong” and “Silver Linings.” Where Hope Comes From is fully illustrated with beautiful line drawings by the author.

Review of 'Where Hope Comes From' on 'Goodreads'

I liked about three poems and found the rest rather trivial.

Maybe I'll reread in a couple of years after this pandemic is finally over and almost forgotten and remember how awful it's been.

》We have calcium in our bones,
iron in our veins,
carbon in our souls
and nitrogen in our brains.

93 per cent stardust,
with souls made of flames,
we are all just stars
that have people names.《
