Viridian Book Launch

6/17/20261 min read

Viridian is the fourth poetry book by celebrated Indian poet and author Tahir Hussain, which was unveiled and launched as a follow-up to his yearlong digital isolation. The nearly 200-page book is described as a "solitary descent back to the self" and a guide to healing, sovereignty, and reclaiming inner space.

Key aspects of the book:

Core Themes: Moving beyond traditional poetry, the work dives into Hussain's lived philosophy, focusing on the brutal but beautiful labor of watering, weeding, and protecting the "garden of you". It explores reclaiming personal sovereignty and mental grounding away from the noise of the digital age.

Literary Success: His previous works gained widespread recognition on Instagram. Viridian achieved immense community support, with the print copies selling out on the very day of its launch.

Philanthropy: Staying true to his message of human connection, the book's official release event doubled as a massive fundraiser for underprivileged children in India, avoiding corporate backing in favor of pure community
