Shashank Gupta is an escape artist. He left his PhD in horticulture to become a farmer. He then abandoned six years of full-time farming for advertising. And after almost three decades as Creative Director he is still looking for freedom in books, hoping that someday he can afford to just sit and write in a small house in the hills farthest from Delhi, where he lives. It's for this wish perhaps that all his novels, including Visitors to the House, are set in the fictional town of Didoli. More recently, he left the rut of social media for real solitude.
