Akshay Masurekar’s stories make for light, pleasant reading and revolve around the most important human emotions—love and affection. Each of these stories has believable characters that the Indian reader could easily identify with. In this collection of stories, set in a time before the era of social media, you won't find any references to social media handles, allowing readers to immerse themselves in a world untouched by digital connectivity. Das Babu is the true story of a man’s profound affection for his adoptive little sister. Known Devil, Unknown Ghost is about a young man’s dilemma over love and arranged marriages, while An Evening in Isle Café is the story of a man whose life changes forever when he meets the girl of his dreams in a pub. The Will is a dark comedy about a father’s unspoken love for his “good-for-nothing” son, while Perfectly Planned Murder is the story of a man who relentlessly pursues justice for his dead friend. And finally, there’s Akinova, the story of a modern-day Casanova. Brief note from the author This book would not have been possible without the help and support of 2 lovely ladies—Samira Masurekar and Janet Quadras. I am grateful to my wife Samira for her constant support and advice, and also to Janet Quadras—a dear friend, excellent editor, and a good colleague. Her comments and suggestions were very helpful. Thank you, Janet! Of the 6 stories, my personal favorite is Known Devil Unknown Ghost—more so because the title of this story was suggested by my beloved wife.
