In her cabin, Malini fumed. Gradually, her anger turned inward. She had ventured too far beyond the person she knew herself to be. It was dawn and the end of the shift by the time she saw theetter of resignation on her table. Urban Shots: Crossroads presents sharply etched portraits of dailyife in contemporary Indian cities. These stories range from theyrical to the devastating and never once flinch at the ugliness which pervades urban India's social tapestry. The heart-warming 'Song of the Summer Bird' is an ode to childhood 'Gautam Gargoyle' is a searingook at a man's quest to fit in at work and 'Crossroads' succinctly captures a man's divided affection between his wife and a seductress. Bold, ayered and startlingly real, these stories could well be about our ownives. Edited by bestselling author Ahmed Faiyaz, this anthology includes stories by both established writers and by new talent. Never before has the urban world been explored in such minutiae as in Urban Shots: Crossroads.
