Description

DISCONCERTING, DOUBLE-EDGED & BITTERSWEET: six stories that are both preposterous and entirely believable - they linger long after the telling. B.

Counting Kafka, Carver, Angela Carter, Ray Bradbury and Borges as her literary influences, Mamatha’s take is long-form short stories that feature the surreal and darkly comic.
