What happens when a bunch of Kolkata based authors decide to meet at Peter Cat on a Sunday afternoon? Food, fun and adda. That’s what yesterday was about as I met up with some familiar and some new faces over chelo kebabs and cups of coffee.
A quick trip to Oxford Bookstores to surprise Kolkata Bookworms where they were celebrating their third anniversary followed. This group is close to my heart for the role it played in my journey as an author until now. All my good wishes to this vibrant group of young readers.
Here’s a glimpse of the meet-up:

A few days ago I posted on ‘The Sanyasi who became a King’ getting shortlisted in the Best Non Fiction category of the Pen N Paper Awards. It feels unreal to see my book published by Sristhi Publishers and represented by The Book Bakers in the august company of books by stalwarts like Amitav Ghosh and Dr Ramachandra Guha.
Overwhelmed and grateful for the love that’s coming my way.
