The Infinite Forest welcomes you to break the rules, for it is a rule-breaker itself. Crafted in reverse, the art was born first, and only then did the words emerge—words that sought to honor the images. What you hold is not just a book but a collaboration spanning generations, bound by blood, memory, and imagination. The Infinite Forest is more than a collection of poems paired with illustrations. It is a world unto itself—one that invites the reader to wander, to pause, and to listen. Here, the rain does not simply fall; it remembers. The moon does not merely shine; it conspires. In the midst of these mythic landscapes stand women who hold both ruin and creation in their breath. A woman walks through a forest that bends for her, bathes in a river that remembers her birth cry, and carries within her the fire that once scorched the gods. She is not here to be understood. She is here to be remembered. Through fragments of myth, poetry, and shadowed memory, the book traces the path of a woman who is both wound and blade, both destruction and divinity—an eternal return to power she never truly lost. - Rashmi Kaushik & Dr Surabhee Kaushik Saha
