One thing we have learnt from the quarantine period in 2020 is to 'pause' and reflect on things we otherwise always ignored. Absence of human activity has given a chance to nature to rejuvenate. We can now hear the birds chirping, can see pictures of clean rivers and a clear sky, we pause to look at old pictures and we spend time cooking what we always ordered from outside.

And hence, the tile of this anthology- "Pause". It is not just about the quarantine but there are a lot of times in our lives we want to pause before taking a big decision, we want to pause to reflect upon a relationship and also for several other reasons. The stories in this book talk about such moments from the author's lives.
