Nomita s poems are a testament to the human spirit s capacity to heal and find meaning. Being a cancer survivor myself, her words resonate deeply with me. The courage to share her thoughts and vulnerabilities touched my heart; her poems will give great insight and hope to many. Nafisa Ali

When cancer brought Nomita Kapur s active days to a halt , her universe shifted, without warning. Gradually, over months, she found her balance again, a different, deeper balance. From that pause a deeply reflective space that helped her reclaim her life, and understand the true meaning of recovery emerged the poems collected in this quietly remarkable book. In sharing her experience and the discoveries she made, she empowers us with this collection; for, in our different ways, we are all in recovery.

[Days of Recovery] will help anyone connect themselves with the perennial truth: life is precious; knowing in what sense it is precious is a big achievement; not knowing is a big loss. Pandit Rajmani Tigunait, Chairman & Spiritual Head, Himalayan Institute

We all have two citizenships, Susan Sontag reminds us: in the land of health and in its dark twin. Nomita Kapur brings us despatches from both. This is a journey of discovery that will move you. A journey of recovery that may empower you. Jerry Pinto
