About Mehzabeen Hussain

Mehzabeen Hussain is a mother, dreamer and a die-hard lover of Love. An Alumna of Lady Shri Ram College (Delhi University) and JNU, she has always been known to write emotion-stirring and cathartic pieces since her school days. She has won many awards for creative writing at national level competitions. She is a Qualitative Research Consultant and Communication Strategist who has worked with national and international NGOs, media houses across India and has academic publications in international journals. The author looks at every mundane life stance with nuanced lenses. She immerses herself in all shades of feelings and opens her heart to be at the mercy of those emotions. She has been lifted, thrashed, numbed, amused, abandoned, welcomed, burned, bewildered and impassioned by emotions, and yet has always chosen to value those emotions as precious parts of Love. Confessions of dreamers and lovers intrigue her. From the rural villages of Assam, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh to cities like New Delhi, Mumbai, Paris, Rome and Venice, she has met people from different walk of life and been a listener to many love stories. As a poet, she tries to step into the shoes of the protagonists who bare their soul to her and share their sentiments. Her poems are a medium of expression of her gratitude. The author’s soul is now a casket of many stories, many emotions; some told with pride, some whispered in shame, while others confessed for the first time hesitatingly in the orchestral symphony of the universe. She believes every emotion felt by every person is layered, precious and profound. Midnight Moaning echoes voices of many a man and woman are true embodiments of love. The author believes this book is like innocence’s master stroke of red paint on a blank canvas, just wishing it’s love to become immortal, if not art.
