Fiction

The Forest of Enchantments by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni is a creative, alternative interpretation from Sita's point of view--a point of view which had been sorely lacking in any version of the Ramayana, in which Sita appeared as little more than a hollow, tragic puppet.

I Prescribe Love by Lavnya Krishnamurthy is a breezy read yet it compels reader to think of mad ways of the world. The characters are very convincing and well crafted. There are many good dialogues and quotes that I kept highlighting.

The plot of The Sign of the Four is complex, Mary Morstan has been receiving large pearls in the mail from an unknown source since her father's death.

Not a Fairytale by Monica Bharti is such a fun book to read with a fantastic couple at the centre and some wonderful side characters who never failed to entertain.

Based on the true but fictionalized story of Pino Lella, Beneath a Scarlet Sky by Mark Sullivan is set in Milan, Italy, and its countryside during the final two years of the Second World War.
