Book excerpt: A girl trapped by the colour of her skin. A politician desperate to regain power. A family ripped apart. 16-year-old Pullamma, with her dark skin, has resigned herself to a limited future in her remote South Indian village. For this reason, she’s obliged her old-fashioned grandmother by not doing well in school. She’s also resigned to remaining unwed. For with three girls in the family, there’s simply not enough dowry to go around. Soon a wedding alliance arrives for her oldest sister—a fair-skinned beauty. There’s great rejoicing in their household. And why not? The prospective father-in-law is the right-hand man of an important politician. As Pullamma helps ready the house for the bride-viewing that precedes any arranged marriage—by washing the cow, by stringing flowers along doorways—she prays for the alliance to go through. Then something happens. Something so inconceivable, it will shape Pullamma’s future in ways she couldn’t have unimagined. Tell A Thousand Lies is a realistic exploration of how superstition and the colour of one’s skin can dictate life in rural India. Skilfully weaving themes of magical realism, political corruption, female empowerment, and fate, Rasana Atreya presents a narrative that is sometimes sassy, sometimes sombre, but ultimately unforgettable. This tale will captivate your heart and linger long after the final page is turned.

Download or read book Self Publish a Book in India written by Dr K Chaudhry and published by Global Book Shop. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Content of this book defies my own 2-point advice to authors. 1. Never publish your own book. A professional publisher has own network of clients. Your book may land in many libraries and many bookseller shops soon after it is printed. 2. Never distrust your publisher. Royalty paid to Authors is the main factor behind success stories of well settled publishers. Publishers with-holding Authors’ share come and go; they generally don’t settle in business. In case you have irresistible apprehensions against a publisher, first divorce that publisher. You gain little in canvassing against a publisher. A genuine publisher invests own money. The Author is supposed to be paid and not to pay. Around 1968, my publisher Jaypee Brothers, provided me a ream of paper, pens, ink, pencils I used for writing manuscript.
