Download or read book Bombay Hangovers written by Rochelle Potkar and published by Vishwakarma Publications. This book was released on 2021-02-21 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These are 16 immersive, entertaining short stories about characters across caste, class, and religion in Bombay. Some of the stories have been nominated for prizes: Fundação Oriente Short Story Competition, 2015 (shortlist); Open Road Review 2016 (winner); DNA-Out of Print Contest 2017 (longlist), and DISQUIET International Literary prize, Lisbon 2019 (notable entry). * * * These stories are laced with the grit, sleaze and dynamism of Bombay. They explore the nerve centre of a great metropolis with caustic wit and uncompromising realism. From the red-light corner of Kamathipura and the race course of Mahalaxmi, from South Bombay where a perfume maker works on exotic fragrances to the throbbing epicentre of Thana and the township of Kalyan, from Bandra to Andheri, the city is brought alive through memorable characters, piquant situations and no holds barred language. With the occasional foray into Goa, the poet Rochelle Potkar makes an impressive debut in short fiction, a genre unfairly neglected by most publishers in India. --Manohar Shetty

Download or read book 15 Degrees Off your heart written by Arun Rawat and published by Arun Rawat. This book was released on 2013-02-11 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In ‘15 Degrees off...’ Arun surprises us with his diverse plots and ploys. So, in the classic noir opener you are dealing with a FBI secret I dare not speak of, and a few pages later eloping with your lover. 'The Mysterious Man' may be the thriller story of a coldhearted criminal layer but not far off 'The Burden' is a heartwarming story of two brothers and their unusual relationship with their father. The book rides high on EQ with its romance and drama. 'Evening Shadow' deals with a man on verge of a breakdown on being left by his beloved wife, with stories like 'Reincarnation' and 'Broken Wings' deserving special mention. What binds them beautifully though is the proverbial twist in the tales and the anthology checks all the boxes in the same. Think 'The Last Leaf', 'The Sniper' and 'Remember the Roses'. If these phrases mean anything to you 15 degrees off... may not disappoint; for the strength of the book lies in its roots among the classic short story.
