The characters are so familiar that you feel you would meet them any moment, in the market, in the office or in your home. A rare talent. – Anand Neelakantan, author, screenwriter Tino de SA’s stories wrap up a range of different expe- sciences in a light, unassuming and very readable prose. – amitabha Bagchi, author each of these eleven stories is a polished gem that speaks to the reader in ways one different from the other. Many of them have a surprising little twist to offer in the end, and all are told with subtel wit. The wide-ranging themes that they encompass include incest, murder, suicide and homosexuality. But they also include love and laughter, hope and history re-imagined.
