Description

Where a story stops, another one begins. The thing with them is, they never walk alone. They always walk with a group of friends. Each reaches its own climax. Then with a final gasp of mortality and despair, fade away. No, they never die, they multiply. To the extent that the original gets lost and new ones are born. Over and over again. Yes, they get lost. No, they never die. They live on, permanently etched in the book of time. And from there, we borrow them and bring them alive. Again. And again. Here are twenty six of them, some standing alone and some chatting up with their long lost friends. When they depart, they leave a lingering fragrance of nostalgia and curiosity. What happened then?

Twenty-six alphabets, twenty-six names, and twenty-six short stories. Each exploring one unique emotion, taking you into the dark recess of the mind. Some frothy and most of them dark. Most standing alone and some facing a mirror, where the same story comes alive in two different ways, through two different protagonists. Meet myriad characters - from the single-minded prostitute to the man on the railways station bereft of any memory; a woman desperate for a biological child to a dead man's trial. Meet a jealous lover with a twisted brain and a gay man's memory of a one-night encounter. Meet twenty-six such characters arrested and sentenced for life inside the pages of a book. Each one leaving an indelible mark on your soul.

About the Author

Sujit was born into a family tree with Durgadas Bandhopadhyay as a patriarch, whose memoir of the 1857 revolt of Bareilly – Bidrohi Bangali – is the only record of the mutiny recorded by any Indian. The writer gene seems to come from there! Born in Lucknow, he grew up in Patna, where his primary education was by Irish Brothers at St. Michael’s School. He finished his post-graduation in Psycholo-gy from Patna University with a scholarship but became a tour operator instead. That took him worldwide, and he became interested in healing and shamans. He joined Pranic Healing courses and became a certified healer. Today, he both heals and reads tarot cards. Married to a Rajasthani Benga-li, he continues to work in tourism and lives in Delhi. His first book of short story collection is in its second edition! He claims to collect real-life stories as a hobby, and a few of them got crafted into Rukhsat - The Remnants of Memories, earlier titled Rukhsat - The Departure. His second book is The Curse of a Courtesan – Panna Bai, a saga of love and betrayal against the backdrop of the 1857 Re-volt of India.
