Jessica Mookherjee, a highly acclaimed poet, presents her second collection of poems titled "Tigress." This captivating collection blends myth, magic, and migration, delving into the profound impact of choices on our lives. Through her magnificent and kaleidoscopic imagination, Mookerjee explores the intricate and often fraught nature of childhood, family, selfhood, and womanhood.

"Fierce, often funny, always charged and revealing, Mookerjee's acute attention to detail captures lives lived between Bengal, Wales, and London. In her exploration of the intense displacement and loss experienced during migration, the poems venture into territories of danger and safety, illness and heartbreak, and ultimately lead to self-discovery. This rich and sensual moonlit menagerie of bears, big cats, wolves, and "forest mothers" unfolds at every step, showcasing Tigress's wild inventiveness, elegance, and distinctiveness.

"Through her poetic lens, Mookerjee invites readers to embark on a journey of introspection and reflection, challenging societal norms and exploring the complexities of human experiences. "Tigress" is a testament to Mookerjee's talent as a poet and her ability to create a vivid and immersive world that resonates with readers of all ages and backgrounds."
