“This book is weird, it's moving, it's fun, and it's ultimately uplifting […] sensorially it’s a very rich book filled with sounds and textures. I haven’t read anything quite like it before.” @sperur on The Colony of Shadows making the @TheJCBPrize longlist.

Four translations, three debut novels, ten dynamic, original, and trailblazing voices. #TheJCBPrize Longlist for 2023 is here! bit.ly/44z0IZl

Had a glorious time at @ChampacaBooks where we were greeted by a beautiful dog, found a copy of my novel in the "Books by Bangalore Authors" cupboard, and picked up some lovely treats! It was great to see so many people chilling and reading together - 10/10 recommend!

A year of deepening autocracy in India: a half-empty Parliament, brazen injustice, more draconian laws, and attempts to weaken the power of the states. But there is a flag and a country to win back. For all. Much to hope for, and to fight for. See you in 2024.

While I still think of my best books of 2023, here is a thread of all the reviews I wrote for a variety of outlets this year🧵 (It was the first time I got to write this many reviews at a broader platform) It’s quite a diverse range now that I look back! #BookTwitter #booktwt

To say that this has been an incredibly bleak and distressing year for me would be an understatement. So I'm glad that it has also been punctuated by joys such as this - the universe tries to balance things out, I guess. Most grateful for this honour. Thank you so much!

Genuinely mean this - Mahreen is *the best* short story writer I've read. Cannot wait for Fall 2024 when her collection is published. Her writing is razor sharp and every single one of her remarkable stories has sliced through my heart.
Mahreen Sohail@mahreensohail

I wrote these stories over a period of ten years & put a lot of my heart into them. Grateful to the team at @APublicSpace for giving this book a chance & supremely excited about working with Brigid Hughes & @_rubywang.

My father died 34 years ago, which is why I was so moved to wake up to a msg from a friend who had set a reminder that it was his birthday today. Friends who remember important dates are so very precious - never let them go. Sharing an old essay of mine. aljazeera.com/features/2022/…

@sukhadatatke This is a beautiful essay, Sukhada. The last three paragraphs are incredibly moving, particularly about the moment. Thank you for sharing, and wishing you my best.
