With the same sharp humour with which he wrote his first successful book The Noble Terror, the author writes five delightfully experimental short stories complied in this new collection.

An ugly poor girl’s reveries make her beautiful as a daydreamer; a communication consultant faces a tricky situation in which his client seeks his advice on how to bribe a government official; in order to win the Nobel Prize in economics a professor visits a temple to seek the god’s blessings and runs into a stranger who is a beggar by choice; a street child takes umbrage at the scornful remarks made by a highly educated rich hypocrite; and a budding writer finds himself constantly worried about what should be the title to a story which he has just started writing.

By turns unpredictable and hilarious, Dreamy and the Swami should be a delightful reading experience.
