Come Tomorrow - Jayaprakash Satyamurty

Fiction

Verdict: Read it


This was a small, short book that my friendly bookworm salesman suggested for me. He stressed (as he always does!) about the author being a Kannada writer who has left for the US and the rareness of the book. I'm not sure about all that, but it looked harmless enough, besides an inflated pricetag.

Come tomorrow is a small collection of supernatural fiction short stories centered around local superstition and religion. It was fascinating. Most of the stories were focused around Bangalore, which was fun even if I couldn't relate to any of the places mentioned. My side of town is not old or illustrious, so often skipped.  As always, short stories tickle my fancy in a way that long, drawn out novels cannot and I enjoyed this. 


Read it!
