    About this audiobook

    Glimpse an interesting period in my life where everyday moments revealed extraordinary stories. This eclectic offering is a treasure trove of experiences and delightful tales to explore the complexities of human nature. Savour these ten urban short stories that are true life snapshots of our commonplace lives, quiet humour, outright laughter, pathos, and nostalgia-narratives that display our frailties and hidden fears, resilience, and hope, from the bustling village markets of Coorg to comic oddity of dwelling in apartment blocks in cities of South India. Step onto these pages and let your quixotic journey begin.
