Subrat SaurabhAuthor of Kuch Woh Pal
The last day of college. Her friends ahead at the bus stop. A book left under a tree. She turned back alone.
She did not come back the same.
Fifteen years later, in a Philadelphia conference room, she is face to face with the one person who was there that night and walked away.
Hindsight is a novel about what is taken from a woman when no one will name it. And what it costs, for everyone, when someone finally does.

Lakshmi Iyer
Some questions follow you. For Lakshmi Iyer, they have always been the ones about belonging — where it comes from, how it’s made, whether it can be chosen.
Lakshmi writes Belonging, Mostly, a newsletter of essays at the intersection of adoption, Indian-American identity, and the stories we tell ourselves about family, culture, and home. Her writing moves between the personal and the political, the intimate and the expansive — tracing the fault lines of diaspora, the tender complications of adoptive motherhood, and what it means to raise children who are becoming themselves in a world that doesn’t always know what to make of them.
When she is not writing, she is watching the sky, losing herself in Korean and Chinese dramas, and being quietly astonished by her kids.
