Can't wait to get my copy!

We're thrilled that three of our books—from the #WomenTranslatingWomen series with Zubaan Books—are now part of Chittajit | চিত্তজিৎ | चित्तजीत's wonderful list of translated titles of the year. Another book will be out before the year ends, and we'll be on this list every year with several titles!

Don't miss this film even if it runs in your city for just one day! Track it on BookMyShow and get tickets for it at your nearest cinema hall.
