Description

In this collection of short stories, the author who is also a journalist, travels from one person's perspective to another, trying to read between the lines in a world that is now as virtual as it is real. The tales dive deep into the human psyche to see truth as it really is - different for each person.

In Love in the Times of Demonetization, a woman sees her life change forever as demonetization grips the country while her father gets the chance to undo a mistake. In Unicorns are Magic, a couple's marriage falls apart after the first month itself and it takes a stranger for them to find their true selves.

Told You So is the story of a divorced woman who learns an important fact of life through pain while a young man who has dedicated his life to friendships made on the internet finally sees how beautiful real human relationships are, but at a cost.

Outrage over Nothing sees a social media addict find himself at dire straits when faced with the most difficult situation in his adult life, only to find out an ugly truth about himself. In Not Her Battle, a perfectly normal person embarks on a journey hoping for an adventure and gets just that, only not in a way she'd imagined. And in The Way Back, a married couple gets stuck inside a car for hours, able to do nothing but wonder what it means to be the better or worse half of each other.

The collection explores issues like what new age companionship stands for, what mental health does to relationships, how being online all day changes a person or how it feels to go to work for a genius who is a sexual predator. It also delves into the unknown territory of the recently witnessed note ban through the eyes of an ordinary couple.

Every tale unfurls unpredictably for the characters and the reader, and it is what they do at that turn in life that make these stories worth one's while.

Each story is a slice of life, very real, very Indian in its essence.
