'Sunflowers for this life', a literary fiction, is a collection of ten fine essays exploring certain aspects of growing up, families breaking, loss, longings, and adulthood coming from a very young emerging writer of this generation. In this book, the author explores a rather unexpected but explicit thing about life: rawness, 'the raw beauty of life'. She navigates certain aspects of life from the loss, and grief that she had seen in her recent years yet doesn't let it define her. She presents her past in fragments and cherishes memories while navigating through life.

The first essay 'united, but in grief' is about growing up, leaving your childhood, and entering your teenage years yet this chapter also explores the fall of big families or blood relations, it carefully navigates the value a single person can hold on other people's life.

'She' the second chapter of the book is an essay deeply moving and consistent in asking and then telling its readers what it is really like to lose someone to death. The author asks bitterly 'what it is to be done of this grief?' as she watched in horror losing a very beloved member of her family.
Other chapters like 'him', and 'suffering tests woman' were mere portraits of the lives of those people, whom the author had deeply introspected and carefully presented.

while chapters like 'sunflowers are pretty', 'To live a thousand lives in just one', and 'there are no stars in the night sky' explores inner sorrow, dreams of life, and her way of chasing them. They are about art, memories, and desires to be everything she could be in just one life.

The fifth chapter 'Sunflowers are pretty' witnesses the careful reminiscing of childhood from where the book gets its title.

'Let me flow like water' is the last essay that represents all the emotions grown-up faces while moving out. What lies in common in all the essays is the witnessing of something or the other, either be it despair, sadness, ugliness, grief, or loss itself.
