We had been married since two years, been together for a total of three. The year preceding our wedding was spent in dating and caressing each other... But later things didn t turn out as expected. Our married life was very much like a drunken man s lost bet... An eclectic potpourri of short stories written by young writers, Urban Shots: Yuva offers a realistic, panoramic, view of today s India. Narrated with intensity, these sharply introspective and distinct tales are reflective of the diverse nature of our lives in Indian cities. In The Love Note , Tara and Rahul find unexpected love after a bitter fight; widowed Nikita finally learns to let go of her past in Long Walk Back to the Shore ; while Gopal unwittingly encounters danger in The Cab Driver. Poignant, optimistic, and sometimes sinister, the stories in this sparkling collection will remain with you long after you ve read them. Edited by Lipi Mehta, this anthology unearths exciting new talent.
