Songs of Mist and Rain

In Songs of Mist and Rain, Joita Ganguly crafts a poetry collection as delicate as morning fog and as resonant as ancestral memory. Rooted in the landscapes of Darjeeling and the Dooars, these poems whisper of women’s footsteps, forgotten gods, and histories etched into stone. With a voice that is lyrical, restrained, and quietly defiant, Ganguly turns away from spectacle to offer something more enduring—presence, patience, and precision.
This is poetry that listens before it speaks. Whether exploring love, loss, myth, or protest, Songs of Mist and Rain invites readers to pause, reflect, and carry fragments of the poems within them like mist in their breath. In a world of noise, this collection is a luminous act of survival.
