experiences. The book encapsulates the unwavering determination to persevere and to forgive and make peace with her past as she performs her father's funeral on the morning of her 4oth birthday, even in the face of life's harshest blows. The memoir chronicles two instances where the line "everything changes" played a transformative role in the author's life. The first occurrence took place during her time as a journalist in Bangalore, when she found herself at a crossroads after a life-threatening accident and a devastating break-up pushed her into a spiral of self-doubt and sorrow. Fast forward to the present, Sreemoyee's younger sister, Sreelekha, inadvertently reiterates the same line, completely unaware of its history. At a time when the author was grappling with her lowest moments, Sreelekha's encouragement served as a guiding light, motivating Sreemoyee to gather the shattered fragments of her life. "Everything Changes" is a powerful memoir that offers readers an intimate glimpse into the author's inner life, tracing her journey through various phases of change, growth, and self-discovery. Sreemoyee's evocative prose and candid storytelling provide a heartfelt narrative that resonates with readers from all walks of life. The memoir delves into themes of resilience, transformation, love, loss, and the universal experience of navigating the ever-shifting tides of existence.
