BALM is a deeply evocative collection of poetry that serves as a soothing remedy for the soul’s wounds. Dr. Kuljit Singh Janjua explores the concept of catharsis, using poetic expression to heal the emotional and spiritual ailments of contemporary humanity. The poems challenge the entrenched male ego, advocate for the respect and dignity of women, and seek coexistence and love in an increasingly mechanized world.Rooted in Punjabi history and culture, BALM tenderly addresses the deep wounds left by the Partition of 1947, political turmoil, and societal divisions. Through verses filled with love, loss, and resilience, the poet applies the balm of compassion and understanding to fractured identities and historical pain.This collection is more than poetry—it is a plea for unity, a tribute to women’s strength, and a beacon of hope. A must-read for those who appreciate nature, spirituality, history, and feminist perspectives in verse.
