Thank you for reading!
This morning I read "Here Comes Your Man," a short story by @Indradas . Indra is a master of interiority and sustained tension. This story kept me on the edge of my seat throughout. Be warned that it references a past sexual assault. https://tasavvurnama.com/here-comes-your-man/ #ShortStory #horror #ReadingCommunity
Here Comes Your Man - Tasavvur

The phone is in her hands. She doesn’t want to switch it on for fear of this coffin-like space keeping her safe and trapped, she doesn’t want to see Aditya’s face in that pale blue glow, the blood marking out a crimson grin in a ghost mask, she doesn’t want to see that he’s not Aditya at all, but something else, that ancient god behind dead eyes, animated by the rutting of horrible men from across time.

Glad to see a kind review of my novella from Gary K. Wolfe at Locus Magazine: 'Indra Das’s The Last Dragoners of Bowbazar is a gorgeously written novella which is part coming-of-age tale, part love letter to fantasy, part family mystery, and part elegantly understated fable of identity...a reflection on both memory and magic that implies a much larger, more fantastical tale, but one that never loses its grounding in character.' https://locusmag.com/2023/06/gary-k-wolfe-reviews-the-last-dragoners-of-bowbazar-by-indra-das/

I've not actually read that many Cormac McCarthy novels, but he's still among my favourite writers because of how much BLOOD MERIDIAN has meant to me. Time to explore more of the art he left behind. A great loss. RIP.
@Thene Thank you for ordering the book. I'm sorry for the long wait--it is indeed supply chain issues. I hope it arrives soon, and doesn't prove disappointing!

Glad to see my new novella THE LAST DRAGONERS OF BOWBAZAR (Subterranean Press) on this Literary Hub line-up.

'Indra Das’ standalone fantasy novella opens with the arresting image of a baby dragon plucked from a living tree, a memory that narrator Ru convinces himself must have been nothing more than a dream.'
