Subrat SaurabhAuthor of Kuch Woh PalFive authors and one story is what make this novel unique. This is a story of four strangers who are brought together by life… or at least that is what some of them think.
Based in the beautiful North-East India, this is the story about the quest of four individuals who are all running from something in their lives and their hunger to find themselves. Be it breaking from the stereotype of our society, running from the darkness within or accepting oneself. The journey however is not without its own dangers, turning their seemingly straight forward quest of self-discovery into a battle of survival. From photography to danger, Aashna, Advait, Charu and Dr. Ashok may have been handed more than they bargained for.
