A collection of poetry and prose that offers comfort, community, and belonging through stories of love, loss, change, and rebirth.

In this collection of poetry and prose, Sara Surani weaves together the universal songs of her ancestors, voices of women she has met across the world, and her own reflections. These are not songs with music, but melodies of memory and spirit–of love and laughter. Of curiosity and wonder. Of healing and hope. Of the little moments when time slows down.

The daughter of Pakistani-Muslim immigrants who moved to South Texas to give their daughter a better life, Surani draws on her roots to create a tapestry of stories; comforting and deeply familiar. Throughout the book, she braids shared struggles with collective joy, reminding us of all that we hold in common while conjuring a deep sense of belonging–one that is needed now, more than ever.

Sara Surani is an activist, entrepreneur, educator, researcher, and co-founder of She is the Universe - a global movement for girls empowerment. She has lived and worked all over the world, bridging storytelling with gender equity, health advocacy, and education, from fishing towns in Tanzania to the depths of the Amazon jungle. Sara works with community empowerment and entrepreneurship globally, collaborating with grassroots and governments across the US, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. She believes that stories move people and have the power to change the world. A daughter of Pakistani-Muslim immigrants in South Texas, Sara holds degrees from Harvard University and Tsinghua University. She is a Fulbright Fellow and a Schwarzman Scholar, and is always looking for an excuse to learn a new language. Sara finds home in many people and places, and is currently finding home in New York City. www.sheistheuniverse.org
