About the Book

Has it ever happened to you that just when you have tied up all the loose ends in a story, you are hit by a thunderbolt out of the blue? And the story just twists on its head?
Out of the Blue is a collection of seven stories that do exactly that. Set in the urban landscape, the protagonists are from different cities in India or other countries, but the tales meander through common dilemmas that city dwellers combat every day. As each story pans out, there comes a moment when readers believe that they have it all wrapped up. It is then that a twister hits them with the impact of a lightning strike. It is this distinct feature that unifies these seven renditions. Whether it is an elderly lady or a young girl, a man caught up in an epidemic-ravaged country or in the glitzy Bollywood world, a victim or the perpetuator of racist bias, each one is a survivor. What it takes to be a winner amidst adverse circumstances is in telling these tales.
