Sonali Bendre Instagram – It’s time to jump right in to our next book of the month for 2023. Penned by Buku Sarkar, a writer and photographer, ‘Not Quite A Disaster After All’ is a debut fiction novel about the thin line between self-destruction and survival. It is also about how our expectations from life shift and change… how they can be pushed in the most unpredictable ways. It is, equally, about falling in love with a person, a city, or the alluring, exciting promise of the new. The narration mainly revolves around the story of 2 women who muster all their resolve to make their way in the world, while seeking their identity. ‘I started writing these stories twelve years ago. I had warned myself back then: Don’t expect any results. Still ten years have passed, it’s a running tragedy of my life. Always a decade behind in realizations. But here it is, my first book, an ode to two cities: New York and Calcutta: One, where I was born; One, where I grew up.’ – Buku Sarkar The synopsis of this book has got us really excited and we can’t wait to get started on it.
