Moods Swings – Rohit Prasad, PGP 1996
About the Book
To what extent will one respond to Insults, salve one’s hurt, and make a name for oneself? What must one do to get out from under the shadow of one’s worst deed? For these and many more intriguing and thought- inspiring questions, these stories, each imbued with the essence drawn from one of the nine basic emotions, provide the answers.
Read on to know more about the mother preparing for the empty nest in her life, a police force confounded by a macabre series of murders, and the serendipitous discovery of hidden truths down the untrodden path. The stories will charm you, send a shudder down your spine, and bring a contented smile to your face.
“The kind that you don’t get to read amid our complicated lives. Simple, surprising, and lots of food for thought. Buy it for a time when you’ are prepared to simply sit back, and think about life and the choices we make.”
In the fine tradition of Saki, Jeffrey Archer, and W Somerset Maugham nine engrossing tales have been woven in a beautiful tapestry, spanning multiple locales and engrossing characters, eloquently plumbing the depths of human feelings, and capping off with unexpected endings.
Come for the flavour, stay for the aftertaste!
