the long version

A collection of 13 short stories by Maninder Chana. FROM THE BACK COVER: Gandhi and Bette Davis have an illicit affair; a high school boy battles with his English professor over a palindrome contest; a Turkish writer invents beat poetry and the modern day poetry scam; answers to the age old question of why psychics never win the lottery; a lost essay by Hemingway on women writers; the hairy details of what happens when a adult film director tries to go legit; Gunga Din helps Rudyard Kipling write the Jungle Book, while saving the British Raj: just some of the wild, sexy and uniquely irreverent tales spun in award-winning writer and filmmaker Maninder Chana's short story collection.
