SYNOPSIS:

When they were first published, Gracy's stories shocked readers with their sexual
candour and frank celebration of female desire. She is now widely recognized as
one of the most important contemporary writers in Malayalam. Her short stories,
which vary from half a page to novella-length, draw the reader into the world of
modern men and women caught in quagmires of desire, lust, jealousy and
vengeance -- emotions that they often carry even into the afterlife. In these pages
we will find: the bitter defiance of a daughter going to her mother's funeral in her
most alluring sari; a contemporary retelling of the story of Draupadi; the sinister
coming-of-age tale of a young girl.

AUTHOR:

Gracy is a pioneering Malayalamshort-story writer , with ten short-story
collections, three memoirs and an autobiography t o her credit. She is the
recipient of the Lalithambika Antharjanam Award and the Katha
Prize, among others.
