Amar Bari Tomar Bari Naxalbari is my second book after The Itch You Can’t Scratch (2011)
It narrates a very dark tale, using humor and the stupidity of conflict to good effect. Its on for preorder at Instamojo for a massive 50% discount and will be up soon on Flipkart and Amazon (cough..e-zamindar…cough)
I have pledged investing all royalties from the book to the microfinance platform Range De.
For those who have bought the book already, this would be a tease, so apologies.
