Shreyonti Chakraborty | 89 comments I have written the fourth draft of my novel 'The Burden of Distorted Memories'. This is more of a rewrite, considering I've changed the whole format. Here's a blurb:

Anushka Ganguly understood crazy. After all, her mother was a crazy who eventually killed herself. However, after silently suffering through a high school heartbreak, she’s determined not to head down the crazy path. Armed with a chance to study architecture at a prestigious college, Anushka moves to Kolkata, only to realize the city is a crazy entity in itself. Her roommates discuss (of all things) homeopathy and childbirth, her best (and only) new friend is a future alcoholic and her landlord’s family likes to fight like animals most nights! A rat-infested room, narrow lanes and sometimes narrower mentalities─ Anushka finds herself embracing it all till the day the most high-profile rape case of the decade stealthily invades her new life and threatenes to tip Anushka’s balance between past and present.

If you are interested, please let me know via email (shreyonti@gmail.com). I am looking for a dedicated beta reader who will check grammar, story, plot, charactrization and any inconsistencies in the story. The whole story takes place in Kolkata, India and all the characters are Indian, so those who like multicultural novels might find this to be a good fit.

Swati Hegde (missswatihegde) | 133 comments Hey! I'm Indian too, so I'm sure it'd appeal to me. I'm going to email you now. :)
