Karnataka Sahitya Akademi winner Vasudhendra's short story collection brings out the discord between the old and the new in unfamiliar ways. As modernity creeps into his characters' lives, violent fissures erupt, and the makings of society itself are challenged. Spine-chilling yet vibrant, simple yet gripping, these stories take the reader into a world that straddles urban Bangalore and rural Karnataka, and make us question what it means to live in such discordant times. Fast-paced with a touch of light humour, this collection will resonate with readers across age groups and social classes.
