This exquisite anthology edited by me and published by Cinnamon Teal/Dogears Bookshop captures the writings of 26 leading Goan writers. The book of 2025, not to be missed.

In May 2022, I declared i would write this book, and three years later I have finished writing it.
I have at last started this week the non-fiction book I've been meaning to write for years, Goans of Zanzibar, 1865-1910, which means I'll be giving fiction a long break, but continuing to cheer all of you on.
