Ravi Gupta began writing from experiences gained from his travels. After graduating from IIM Calcutta, he had a corporate career spanning two decades working in international business.

His first book, Gather Around the Fire, is a collection of African folk tales. Each tale from a different country in southern Africa is followed by a fact sheet so that the young reader can get to know the fifteen countries as well as their lore.

Breathes There The Man is a literary fiction novel. It's an engrossing story that will take you from the murky waters of the Niger Delta to the cut-and-thrust of cosmopolitan London and to the badlands of rural India.

Ravi Gupta lives in England. He is married with two daughters.
