Chasing Stripes and Stars follows four young Indians as they move from the crowded mornings of Indore and Mumbai to the snow-salted corridors of MIT and the bright courtyards of Stanford, and into clinics and start-ups where technology touches fragile human decisions. Moving quietly across trains, campuses, exam halls, and waiting rooms, the novel asks what it means to belong when your work travels farther than your body, and how care survives inside institutions built for speed. Ved Prakash traces the small, exact moments-an empty chair at dinner, a question in a clinic margin, a cardboard prototype at two in the morning-through which families, friendships, and systems reveal their true commitments. This is a story about possibility, failure, and the everyday work of keeping people at the centre of progress.
