Read @Outlookindia’s review of @BelaNegi’s The Tree With Eyes, a collection of stories, set in the western Himalayas, that chronicles the lives of its inhabitants shaped by migration, ecological change and the slow erosion of belonging.

[Westland Books @WestlandBooks]

‘Negi transforms everyday experiences into profound human truths. The stories in this memorable collection bring the Himalayan landscape to life while treating both the land and its people with remarkable empathy and dignity’

Always a joy to continue the annual tradition, since 2010, of my releasing a new book by @khyru to her loyal and faithful readers in Thiruvananthapuram ! Took the opportunity of my thirteenth such event (she has also authored six unlaunched books!) to speak at length about her remarkable ability to see the funny side of life by converting the most mundane incidents and daily inconveniences into sources of hilarity!

[Westland Books @WestlandBooks]

It was a joyous full house at the Trivandrum launch of @khyru's new book, Happy Go Funny with @ShashiTharoor.

Here are some snippets from the evening.

[Westland Books @WestlandBooks]

From Sheena Kalayil comes an extraordinary novel about love and identity in a time of political unrest.

Longlisted for the @WomensPrize for Fiction 2026, the Indian edition of The Others is releasing on 24 July.

[Maya Sharma @MsMayaSharma]

My book is here! 📕
So happy and excited to share this with you all.

‘Good News,Bad News’ is the story of my many years in TV journalism in India. It looks at how the values of TV news changed - in a changing country.

I do hope you enjoy reading it! 🌺
