Parvathy's Well & other stories
Poornima Manco
Six captivating short stories that take you on an Indian Odyssey. From the North to the South, from the rich to the poor, from children to adults, these tales traverse innocence and experience and the innate tragicomedy of life itself. The breathtaking and varied tableau of the Indian subcontinent is just as much a character in the stories, as the protagonists themselves.

About the Author

Born and brought up in India, Poornima moved to the UK in the late '90s. Always a voracious reader, she channelled her imagination into writing from a very young age. Meeting with some early success, she decided to compile her short stories into a trilogy of books set in India, her spiritual homeland. Her stories are saturated with the sights, sounds and smells of her birthplace, her umbilical cord still intact after more than two decades. She considers herself a global nomad though and hopes to write about other lands and people after her trilogy is complete.
