Authorship

Roxana has taken a turn from her normal extra-curricular activities – taken pen to paper as she becomes an author.
 Having dabbled with poetry from a young age – but writing on her family members and friends, she went into a serious subject of writing on spirituality and philosophy.  Her first published book on Amazon is an anthology of poetry titled a Parallel World, where she brings spiritual meaning to subjects like ‘Sari Pallu’ and limericks like ‘She Silly Sally’.
 Excited at being an author, she has two more books in the pipeline: ‘Why I did not Die’ and ‘Healthy Happenings’ - both books on an alternative genre

Why I Did Not Die

"Why I Did Not Die" is a compelling and inspirational book by Roxana Jaffer, offering a profound exploration of resilience, hardiness, and the mysteries of fate through real-life near-death incidents.

Roxana's extraordinary journey, marked by encounters with death and miraculous recoveries, serves as a testament to the value of life and the inevitability of death. With poignant storytelling, she delves into the concept of fate, questioning whether birth and death are predestined and sharing her insights on contesting fate.

This book is a powerful reminder of the importance of living passionately rather than fearfully, leaving readers inspired and enlightened by Roxana's transformative experiences.

A Parallel World

This book is a collection of poems driven out of the poet’s labor of love as she stitched together her life experiences and the lessons gleaned from them to her readings of Rumi & Kabir, 13th and 15th Century poets.

These poems are categorized in the genres of Ode, Allegory, Epic, and Soliloquy and are aimed at exploring spirituality and philosophy through human experience.

The understanding of the poems is aided through marvelous illustration work by artists across the world.

It’s one of the most powerful books I have read in a while. It touched me on various points on a personal level.

“The book helps me through my good and bad days alike.”

Michael Fuchs

This book helped surface so many of my emotions that were hidden deep beneath my heart. I read it not once or twice, but every day, treating it as a Holy text, that helps me through my good and bad days alike.

“The collection of words was so captivating”

Karim Jaffer

Initial thoughts that emerged included a yearning to hear more. The collection of words was so captivating, that it led me to recite aloud, and often whisper the chemistry of imbedded messages. This collection was continuously weaving within the obvious coupled with the mysterious. The synergy with which each piece, although unique, demonstrated a malaise of enticing depth. The dedication you have demonstrated to your ‘Alma Mater’ has given birth to yet another expedition for you to proliferate in a humble manner. The selection of original artwork assigned to each piece further complimented your own heartfelt Copy to a new draft expressions. I am so looking forward to your upcoming publications.

Healthy Happenings

In the fast paced world, we live in an era, where modernity is taking over, we have become creatures of FOMO. Yes, creatures of a huge fear, Fear of Missing Out, but perhaps the one thing we have all missed out on is the treasures that are found in our kitchens and gardens, as well as in the tales told by our mothers and grandmothers. 

In a bid to avoid any more withdrawal symptoms of FOMO, this book is brought to all the readers so that we don’t miss out on the hidden qualities and attributes of the seeds, leaves, roots and recipes of mixtures that are made and handed down from one generation to the other. 

This book aims to create awareness regarding the goodness and healing properties of each constituent available in our kitchens, and instead of rushing to grab the bottle of pills, we try and find solace from our hidden pharmacy.

 Brought to you with love, this book provides our readers with tried and tested antidotes to maladies, so we can avoid Missing out the Pharmacy in the Kitchen.
