Amused




Amused

Amused has been written by young, fresh and first time writers and it offers an array of stories with a twist in the tail. The stories will make you smile, laugh, cry and keep you amused.

While Sandhya writes about the Jogan family that follows the IST in the USA,  'The Encounter' by Srinath has a lot to say about the life and the transformations that one goes through and all that is brought out through a conversation between a grandfather and a grandson. Krishna's 'The Winter Birds' with an unusual narration is a very exciting romantic story. Ravikiran's 'Shakespeare's curse' is about the protagonist's encounter with Shakespeare...
Achal Rangaswamy's 'Hero Meets Hero' is about a day in the life of a pickpocket, Kshitij Banker's story will remind you of a stranger you know  well, Usha and Sriya's stories have everyday humour that we miss to observe.

A sure decoction to leave you Amused!
