Fumes
A parasite that feeds on an unsuspecting couple…
A young woman who stares into the face of love and makes a difficult decision…
An old woman who has mastered the art of life…
A twelve year old who has made a grave mistake – and has a narrow escape…
A woman who has lost her way, unable to cope with her loss…
FUMES is a collection of stories about ordinary people who experience one extraordinary day in their lives, and how that defines them, or alters them. And how they deal with their fears, mistakes, betrayal, revenge, love and, most importantly, hope.

Reviews
“The writer has beautifully strewn together the emotional upheavals of young Meera who struggles with so many challenges! I found myself choking in so many places while reading the book. Meera’s struggle to ‘fit in’ is something many will resonate with. “
Vandana Mahajan on Amazon
“Is there a child who has not felt a sense of displacement and identity crisis at school?
While reading ‘Rat, Rabbit, Rock!’, a reader is bound to navigate waves of childhood memories just as the protagonist experiences it. Issues such as bullying, peer pressure and mental health are explored through a ten year old’s gaze. Her thoughts on ‘fitting in with other children’ and ‘Life and Death’ are thought provoking and heartwarming.”

“As a touching yet engaging recollection of life and death through a ten year old girl’s perspective, it has really done a commendable job. The character arcs are well developed, leaving no loose threads in the end. We end up vouching for the little girl to survive in this muddled world and at several instances, I could see myself in her.”
