About the book

Winner, ‘Hindu Literary Prize 2014’ A unique collection of short stories on life, relationships and the human conditionLyrical, enigmatic, moving, this is a collection of short stories that traverse topics such as patricide, incest, betrayal, delusions, amnesia. Life being a shapeless thing of borrowed bits and stolen voices, it is only stories that give it form. These tales grow out of a tangle of relationships and crystallize at moments of intensity when one is not conscious of oneself but is blithe as in childhood, entranced as at moments of sexual gratification or lost in prayer.
