'But @rahulabhatia's honesty and his keen- ness to understand the authors of this project in their multifarious aspects shines through the book, often leading the reader to stereotype-defying characters.' @ContextIndia indianexpress.com/article/bo…

The Identity Project blends history and ethnography to lay out contemporary India’s poignant story

Democracy is being unmade, the writer shows, as people’s acrimony and the state’s discriminatory programmes feed off each other

Smashing review. Read the book when you can, it's really really really really good. Thank you @scroll_in. @ContextIndia @WestlandBooks @sombatabyal scroll.in/article/1065522/re…

‘Red River’: To whom does a piece of land belong? Who gets to live on its resources?

Somnath Batabyal’s novel walks a tightrope between seeming normalcy and its violent collapse.

Read! ' ...this is an unusually intelligent and oddly compassionate book, written with great sensitivity and with a highly accomplished unfolding of plot' says @rsengupta2003 of @SSRanbir's #DarkStar frontline.thehindu.com/books… @ContextIndia @WestlandBooks

Book Review: ‘Dark Star’ by Ranbir Sidhu

The novel takes an unflinching look at life with all its deceptions. Therein lies its strength.
