East & West: Stories of India now in India, UK, and USA
This particular collection of stories is imagined – though sometimes inspired by fact. They came about because of a marriage that carried me away to far- off India, which became my spiritual home.

The aim of these stories is to serve as a kind of portal into the daily lives and emotional realities that reflect the rich depth and humanity that is India.
