This book is mainly a collection of stories and snippets from the author's time at BITS Pilani in the 1980s. These stories are all about campus life and real and imaginary friendships, encounters, romances, relationships and experiences. They are largely fictional.
The BITS Pilani campus is in the remote north corner of Rajasthan in India. Excepting for a few staff kids, all the students lived in hostels. The boy to girl ratio on campus was about 11:1 and this gender imbalance, along with the remoteness from a big town or city, played out in interesting ways in the campus social scene. This book attempts to capture this social scene.
Part 2 of this book is based on fictional adventures of some of the author's batchmates after graduating from Pilani.
This book will recreate memories for ex-students from the 70s through to the 90s and also give more recent students a reflection of campus life back then.
