“The Swinging Swing and other Short stories” is Medhini’s debut Collection of Stories after the publication of two English Poetry books. These stories unfold various themes of interest for the readers. The author stretches her hand with imagination to play along with colourful as well as poignant tales bearing a tinge of reality. Surprisingly a horror story is also included in the series. Medhini derives the substance and materials mainly from the environment, community and human relationships. Everyone has feelings and emotions and when they are put into words, poems or stories are evolved. When the stories transmit these feelings into the hearts and minds of readers it sustains there for a long time and it becomes successful to a certain extent. Enjoy reading the book, dear readers.
