97 Days

Description

Still haunted by the first time he saw his second daughter, 97 Days covers the time period that Kabir's second daughter spent in the NICU following her birth.

As a second foray into fatherhood, Kabir and his partner are sure that they know what to expect, but a difficult conception journey and pregnancy complications result in their child being born three months early, and puts their understanding of parenthood, coupledom and selfhood into jeopardy...

This harrowing memoir explores Kabir's struggles with mental health, fatherhood and trauma, in the midst of trying to keep his family together, and is an important reflection on becoming a man and being part of a family.
