Still Becoming: Belonging Nowhere

By Saifuddin Ekram

"Still Becoming: Belonging Nowhere" is a lyrical and emotionally immersive novel about identity, migration, and the longing to belong.

Salim's journey begins in the bustling heart of Dhaka and unfolds across train platforms, quiet apartments, and foreign streets in Melbourne. Torn between the memories he carries and the future he tries to build, Salim faces the invisible battles that come with chasing dreams in a land that never quite feels like home.
