Shaistha

The Unexpected Journey is a soul-stirring collection of letters and poetry written in the quiet aftermath of loss. When her husband passed away, her world shifted without warning. Left with memories, milestones, and children who still needed lullabies, she began writing to him, for him, and sometimes, in spite of him. Through pages soaked in grief and grace, she explores the ache of bedtime stories told alone, the strength found in small victories, and the haunting beauty of loving someone who's no longer here.
This is not just a book about death. It's a book about what comes *after*. About raising children while nursing a broken heart. About holding joy and sorrow in the same breath. About surviving the kind of pain no one prepares you for, and somehow, becoming someone new. For anyone who's ever loved, lost, and kept going.
