ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Born in the city of Joy, Kolkata, India, considers herself as a budding writer. She left her business to pursue her childhood passion of writing in 2013. Love of reading and writing was passed on to her by her mother. She was and is a regular reader of magazines and short stories. She also wrote but it was only her who had the privilege to enjoy them. She grew up enjoying all that Enid Blyton wrote and Agatha Christie penned. However, short stories by O. Henry, Roald Dahl and alike intrigued her to write some of her own. Although, neither could she complete any of them nor did she show them to anyone. The smell of new land and books kept her motivated.


Decades passed. She continued reading, leaving her pens behind. But deep inside her, she knew that she would restart writing one day, for sure. 


Sometimes she felt restless. It was difficult. Leaving a business that she built with her hard work of so many years wasn’t easy. But then the tipping point came and her calling had the final say. She left the business and dedicated herself to the passion that she wanted to pursue long. And now after four cycles of seasons, she stands here with a dozen short stories, few travel stories and her first novel, The Leap. Now when she looks back, she feels a profound sense of contentment.


In her book, an inner pilgrimage runs parallel to the outer sojourn that ultimately leads us to our higher self. However, for this journey to take place, we must first allow ourselves to hit the road to nowhere.

ABOUT THE BOOK

The book is about the persistent search of Urban Indians for solace once experienced in childhood, then lost somewhere unknown yet somewhat known, and the troubles that beset them when they glimpse even just a sliver of it in the arms of those they love!


Victor Verghese grows up without his mother’s love and spends the most part of his early life subconsciously living the lack in his dealings with the world. There is this irreparable void in his psyche that he simply must fill, and when he finds a girl—Sonal Dutta—who can do just that, he is left with an idea he must chase. Infused with a new pulsating drive, he lands up in the preeminent management institute in the country only to end up in about of failed love and general disillusionment. 


Wafting through life on weak emotional underpinnings, he courts an exotic adventure through the inglorious corners of China Town, Calcutta; Chittagong, Bangladesh; and Bac Lieu, Vietnam, at the behest of a woman he had always been conditioned to avoid, chasing the most absurd ideal that even he knows is over the top even by his liberal interpretations of all things ‘implausible.’

WHAT WILL YOU ENJOY READING

As the deeper truth reveals itself, one finds out that in spite of all the power a man like Victor Verghese possesses, he is still the loving creation of a wider, complex network of riddles and secrets that buffets him around parts of India, Bangladesh, Vietnam, Mauritius, and Egypt into a position of sublime personal power; and that in spite of his ignorance of the spiritual debts he owes, he is still cruelly left craving for more, and some more.
