Your personal history, the one you grew up absorbing was only a part of a bigger, collective history, now experienced through memory, you realize. Reading this note from author-editor Sucharita Dutta-Asane about NOSTALGIC FOR A PLACE NEVER SEEN reinforces this for me. I'm deeply touched.

A wonderful afternoon was had last Sunday, as I read poems about migration and displacement from my debut poetry collection. The event was organized by Neighbourhood Diaries, an oral history initiative based in the very neighbourhood I grew up in Delhi.
