“To take something that is close to your heart and to entwine it with something that is part of your very DNA – that’s storytelling at its most honest form. This is what Suresh has done with The Pilani Pilgrims. As you embark on this refreshing narrative, you cannot help but relive the past and look at it with wonder,nostalgia…and an undeniable sense of wistfulness. It’s never too late to be a teenager… but if you don’t subscribe to that theory, your next best bet would be to pick up this book and allow it to transport you to when you were."

What happens when a Civil Engineer, a CAD-CAM Sales Executive, an advertising copywriter, a multimedia Project Manager, an event management consultant and a column writer in a newspaper come together to plan out someone’s future? Worse still, what happens when they all happen to be the same person and it is his future that’s being planned? When he manages to escape this schizo nuthouse, L Suresh plans to write a book on his predicament and inflict more pain on this already suffering world. In the meantime, he plans to write other books based on his saner experiences and observations. And to ensure that he has no way out from this goal, he has currently taken a sabbatical from work and is in hiding from all his other personae.
