Bewildering Stories biography
I was born and raised in Durgapur which is a small town in West Bengal, India. I did my graduation in English Literature from Calcutta University and post-graduation from Jadavpur University. People find a lot of emerging writers down here and my parents almost thought I was going to be one too. Strangely the only thing that brings me joy is dissecting literary works instead of writing any myself.
Currently, I have taken an interest in Anglophone Indian science fiction, a topic on which I also hope to do my doctoral study. I am not sure how and when my fascination regarding SF began but I’d like to think it has something to do with my absolute adoration for mad literary scientists. (I might or might not have possessed too many Cuthbert Calculus figurines as a child).
When I am not being a student I like to custom paint old bottles or play with my cats.
