My debut novel 'Unfolding' is out in the world today with @HarperCollinsIN . A work of years, between many other things. I send my characters who have been mine for more than half a decade to you. Buy wherever you get books.

Devastated. Wrecked. Beyond salvation. Anita Brookner is just too good.

@swatiatrest Not at all! It is very very much historical especially the Badhrolok-Chotolok dynamic!

[Rahul Singh @rahulzsing]

@swatiatrest Umm, right but the idea of a bodhrolok is very much oriented in caste . Class only aided in reproducing it under the guise of Bengal’s claim of castlessness; that’s what historical and sociological studies on caste in Bengal attest. Bhodrobitto is an apt term!

[Rahul Singh @rahulzsing]

@swatiatrest Yes, like the Indian Middle Class, the Bhadrolok continues to remain a contested category. Sociologically, it is a caste marker that has now merged with class to reproduce caste as a capitalist group.

While June shouldn't be the only month you read queer lit, but if you've still not read UNFOLDING and many other fantastic books from this curated list by @mid_day Mumbai, you ABSOLUTELY must.

@sociohoeologist Such great recommendations. I might just add my novel published this year by Harper Collins

Oh, Joyce….! Joyce knew his novel will be “the greatest novel of the century.”

I am delighted to be a part of an online panel of the Indo-Korean lit festival organised by @ltikorea and I&Q collective with Sang Young Park (whose novel I loved).

@j_chitrakshi Thank you. It goes beautifully with the novel :)

[Rahul Singh @rahulzsing]

Going to blow my own trumpet a little: read my book. It is published in 2026. It has no AI usage whatsoever. Every word is mine and mine only. Thank you very much. #books #publishing #debutnovel #Unfolding
PS: I am surprised and disappointed in Olga T. among many other things :/

[Rahul Singh @rahulzsing]

@SankarChoudha10 Soon hopefully. But having the paperback version is a delight too. Look at the cover :P

[Rahul Singh @rahulzsing]

Staring at the ceiling and waiting for the argument to pop in. *Very academic* The thesis shall be seen to its finish, hopefully.

@thepandit03 @CPIMWestBengal So has the Communist philosophy! You’re literally studying Political Science. It’s surprising of you to make such a comment, frankly. It smacks of historical ignorance.

[Rahul Singh @rahulzsing]

@thepandit03 @CPIMWestBengal Then why are you speaking/writing in English? It’s not your language. So stop all this nonsense.

[Rahul Singh @rahulzsing]

Who would’ve thought that I’d speak about UNFOLDING on a podcast! I didn’t. I had such a fun time and spoke my mind in this.

"Homosexuals live in a world where their ideas of love generally come from representations of heterosexual ideas. So, in this novel, I wanted to completely undo that," Rahul Singh (@rahulzsing) tells Rush Mukherjee.
