Paper Asylum in The Woman Inc
In which Poornima Laxmeshwar writes about Paper Asylum in The Woman Inc.
Read it here.
“Reading Paper Asylum is not easy but if one has the nerve then it’s a bitter pill when swallowed can give a relief. Maybe not permanent but then nothing is permanent. Through the 100 pages Rochelle Potkar has been able to see the underbelly of human emotions, sentiments and hypocrisy that we try to carry forward effortlessly. It’s like a painted canvas not just rough on the edges but in its intermittent strokes as well.”
Goa-Guntur
The tour of Guntur to Goa was interesting. Met people, got influenced, read poetry, feasted, laughed (a lot!), book-launched, lunched, taught haibun to the very-vibrant and super-creative students of BITS Pilani, Goa.
Enjoyed!
