Name of the Book : Crossed $Knotted
USP: India's First Composite Novel Publisher: Readomania WHAT IT IS ABOUT
"Just when you thought there couldn't be anything new about the format of a novel, here
comes a home-brewn novelty - a composite novel, spun out of a set of short stories told by different authors. Each story is a unique adventure for the reader, yet criss-crosses and knots into the weave and weft of the next, each with a different design and texture, never predictable, always surprising, and yet quite whole. For the reader it is like a set of master chefs in different cuisines coming together to offer you one hell of a multi-cuisine, multi-course meal, like you've never had before." - Siddhartha Basu Quiz Master, Actor, Director-Producer of KBC |
BLURB
