In Pursuit of That Elusive Progeny Merlin Mythili Shanmugam

Compassion and empathy make human life endearing and worthy to live. The short stories in this book nudge the reader to empathize with the ordinary yet inspirational characters as they go through unfathomable struggles in their mediocre lives. Be it a young Shruti who relentlessly pursues her elusive motherhood, an old Ranjidham who has lived all her life waiting for something or somebody or Aditya's mother who finally lets go and embraces detachment, this book celebrates the dignity and courage of a motley of characters in the face of adversity.
