Here is an essay I wrote for #IndianExpress about #Sita #Diwali and why her story is so relevant even today. indianexpress.com/article/expres… #ForestofEnchantments HarperCollins India Ananth Padmanabhan Shabnam Srivastava
Thank you. Yes, #ForestofEnchantments is a very appropriate #Diwali read. HarperCollins India Ananth Padmanabhan Shabnam Srivastava Diya Kar
Thank you Ananth Padmanabhan and the wonderful team at HarperCollins India for your championship of #INDEPENDENCE and also #LastQueen . Yes, looking forward to the Indian #booktour and to meeting my readers in several Indian cities and bookfests, especially JLF Litfest and Kolkata Literary Meet.
🙏Glad you are enjoying. #MaharaniJindan is so amazing--and she was sadly forgotten by many and maligned by the British. I have great admiration for this strong wife, mother and ruler.
Get ready for Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni’s most powerful novel yet! #Independence is a moving story of loyalty and love, nationhood and sisterhood, set against India’s freedom movement, at once exhilarating and devastating. Chitra B. Divakaruni
Excited to share the Indian cover,with kantha embroidery typical of Bengal folk-art.Very relevant as 2 characters in INDEPENDENCE are kantha-makers.Each element here depicts an important event/symbol in the novel. Soon to be on pre-order on Amazon India. HarperCollins India Ananth Padmanabhan
