About this book
A fiction collection of five linked stories set in contemporary Bombay, a vivid portrait of a city where ghosts, passions, feuds, and mysteries illuminate the human spirit. The central theme explores how love, duty, and memory collide under urban pressure, revealing both resilience and vulnerability. The intended reader is adults who enjoy literary fiction and urban realism, and who relish character-driven narratives that unfold in atmospheric, city-street detail. The emotional tone is haunting, introspective, and atmospheric.
The content is story-led and written in precise, luminous prose. A single, elusive civil servant provides the connective thread, recounting each evening’s extraordinary tale in a smoky Bombay bar. The reading experience feels intimate and cinematic, with a tightly controlled structure that invites reflection as the city itself becomes a living character—layered, volatile, and compelling.
Across the stories, readers meet figures shaped by ambition, duty, and circumstance, and follow their journeys as they grapple with longing, moral ambiguity, and the consequences of choice. The collection blends memory, myth, and social tension to reward careful reading and close attention to voice and mood.
