Extra special when a writer whose work you admire and discuss with fellows in academia picks up your book. Thank you, @KoralDasgupta. 😄🙏 The Bare Bones Book of Humour is available in paperback from @BareBonesLLP: barebonespublishing.in/produ… Available overseas on Amazon.
Will start reading these two now, one after the other. One edited by @ankit_raj01 and another by @TejaswineeRC Both beautifully produced anthologies. And I absolutely, absolutely love the covers.

MONKEY! My new novel on @alephbookco, now available for preorder. A meditation on journeys and destinations, nature and civilization, what it means to be recognized, and what it means to be free. amzn.in/d/06M67s7h
