The Folded Earth
June 2012: A narrative account of our times set in the Himalaya, the story revolves around the trauma suffered by Maya, a teacher-writer whose escape into the natural haven of Ranikhet is threatened by administrators who do not share the same love and concern for nature. A well-written fictionalised account of real-life experiences being faced by thousands across a changing subcontinent.
