Incredible reviews are pouring in for Saharu Nusaiba Kannanari’s debut, ‘Chronicle of an Hour and a Half’. This is your sign to get a copy of the book today! 👇“[It] is a chronicle of a death foretold. The dozen or so voices that narrate the incident do not turn into a cacophony. The multiple narratives only highlight how religion and misogyny encourage seemingly decent people to engage in unproductive—even fatal—activities.”—@sayari.is.reading for @scroll_in“For a novel covering such dark, deeply uncomfortable emotional territory, it is a surprisingly breezy read, thanks to Kannanari’s insouciance and take-no-prisoners style. This is a highly accomplished debut that steers clear of convenient writerly choices.”—@adityamanijha for @livemintlounge“In this political climate and during a crucial election year in India, [it] makes for a sobering read.”—Deepti Bhasthi for @artreview_magazine“Kannanari takes us into the inner lives of people with the assuredness of a seasoned storyteller and leaves one instantly spellbound by both the simplicity and complexity of provincial life.”—@timesofindia“In an age where social media fabricates the truth for all of us, Saharu Nusaiba Kannanari paints the picture of mass hysteria in the fictional village of Vaiga placed in the Western Ghats.”—@platformagazine“…it is a perfect book for our age, and naturally—with chilling accuracy—it also satirizes our alarming world of digital overexposure and hyperreality.”—@karkritques for @thefederal_india“It is a book that forces the reader to confront the realities of female body politics through a feminist lens, using an engagingly kaleidoscopic narrative. The writing is so self-assured it’s hard to believe this is a debut novel.”—@prathapnair for @openmagazine“‘… a short yet powerful novel that portrays what happens when a shift in productive forces, represented here by technology, collides with a society clinging to the past.”—@sansip for @moneycontrolcom“Kannanari infuses the unsettling story with a sadness that permeates the place, the people, the happenings. In an hour and a half, a village is torn apart savagely.”—@kumar.sheila for @newindianexpress … See MoreSee Less
“March has been a month of travel and I tend to read a lot when I am on the road.‘Circles of Freedom’ by TCA Raghavan is another view of our National Movement, told through the lives of a far lesser-known circle of friends—Aruna Asaf Ali, Asaf Ali, Sarojini Naidu, Syud Hossain & Syed Mahmood. Having lived in Delhi for several years, I knew of Aruna Asaf Ali as the marg (road) close to the JNU campus, I knew it was named after a “freedom fighter” (that beloved anachronism). She comes to life in this book, as does Sarojini Naidu, whom we know mainly as a (somewhat flowery) poet and the only woman depicted in representations of the Dandi March.I thoroughly enjoyed @harish.bhat.r’s ‘Office Secrets’, a chuckle-aloud compilation of his columns about the self-important lingo & comedy of the contemporary office.Then, @aparnapiramalraje’s ‘Chemical Khichdi’ about her coming-to-terms with the diagnosis of bipolar disorder. Born to one of India’s well-known industrial families, she is aware of her privilege & this is one of the biggest strengths of the book.Sapan Saran’s ‘Ottam aur Anya Natak’ comprises three plays, the Ottam of the title being the showpiece. This play is about the life of a woman athlete, who is called out for ‘not being female enough’, someone like Santhi Soundarajan or Dutee Chand. Saran’s book came out only a few weeks after mine, & naturally I was intrigued. Her research on the complex science of sex is flawless, but the human resolution of her narrative is beautiful. For those who can read Hindi, please get this book.I started reading Sudipta Kaviraj’s ‘The Invention of Private Life’ for work, but the work is so compelling that I have started taking it to bed from last night. Kaviraj examines the seductive idea that the values of modernity made its way to people more meaningfully through the literary works of the late 18th, 19th &20th centuries than through state administration or legal processes or more formal institutions of modernity.”—@sohinichatThis Women’s Month, join us as we spotlight the incredible women authors we’re honored to represent.Sohini Chattopadhyay is the author of ‘The Day I Became a Runner’.

“I’m an intuitive coach who loves to read about the science that explains how my intuitive abilities are helping the businesses and individuals I work with. From the ‘Molecules of Emotion’ by Candace Pert to ‘Morphic Resonance’ by @rupertsheldrake and now this fascinating book, ‘We are Electric’, by Sally Adee on the Electrome, I’m devouring books on how we are so much more than the mental, emotional, physical bodies we are aware of.”–@pallavi108This Women’s Month, join us as we spotlight the incredible women authors we’re honored to represent. Throughout March, we’ll be sharing snapshots of these talented women indulging in the joy of reading.
