Based in Pindi Balochan, Panjab, the story follows Aman, a young man, who returns home, floating in a water body and badly injured. Once he comprehends being back in his village, he learns that his own father is healing him back to life, knowing that his son was almost killed by the gangs he was once involved with and for whom he had run away from home when he was a teenager. This tale of culture, lineage, and character is set up against the backdrop of Panjab and its many facets.

Early praise

"In this insightful debut poetry collection, There is a Home in All of us , Yukti Narang invites us to explore the world of Aman through a fictionalized narrative of poems stringed together with memories of violence and traumas of history; in her poetry, we can see the silhouettes of a violent past and rhythms of a hopeful future nudging the readers to imagine how Aman heals with love and faith. This poetry refreshingly shows us glimpses of filial love and its power to recuperate Aman who, as a prodigal son, has finally returned home. In Aman’s pain of displacement lies a desire to find his home and Yukti Narang evokes it beautifully in these poems." – Dr. Parvinder Mehta, author of On Wings of Words
