Description

Some stories sit quietly inside us. Others demand to be told. This collection does both.

All The Things We Don't Say is a striking debut by Raina Bindal — a collection of fifteen brief, unforgettable stories about growing up across cultures, languages, and expectations.

These are the voices we rarely hear aloud: girls stretched thin beneath perfection, boys breaking in silence, and young people balancing identities the world never fully sees. One student hides panic behind polished grades. One girl learns to shrink into her skin. A refugee clings to forgotten roots in a language that doesn't feel like home.

Each story offers a quiet reckoning — honest, intimate, and lasting.

For anyone who's ever spoken softly, held too much in, or wondered if they were the only one feeling this way — this book doesn't just speak. It listens.
