Out of Print Ten Years: An Anthology of Stories
Material type: TextLanguage: English Publisher: Chennai: Westland Publications Pvt. Ltd., 2020Description: xvii,261 p. PB 23x15 cmISBN: 9789389648911Subject(s): Indian English Fiction | Indian English LiteratureDDC classification: 820.33 Summary: Out of Print in print! A decade ago, in 2010, Indira Chandrasekhar set up Out of Print to address a need she felt as a writer: a focused platform for the short story; a space for robust editorial discussions as well as one that would serve as a platform for discoveries—of newer facets of the form itself and of new writing. This commemorative volume hopes to capture something of that adventure. It is, thus, not a ‘best of’ volume, but one that speaks to the spirit of the magazine: its diversity of literary voices, its openness to experimentation, its focus on Indian-language publishing and its stand against mediocrity. Most crucially, of course, this is an ode to the short-story form, its ‘art of brevity and honesty’.Item type | Current location | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
