Description:The stories in this collection from Ankush Saikia range in locales from the Assam countryside to the Khasi hills, and from Delhi to London. ‘Two Ending’ deals with a superstitious paanwallah's attempts to make sense of the increasing violence around him, while ‘The Test’ looks at an episode in the life of a Shillong schoolboy named Robert. ‘Jet City Woman’ recounts the adventures of a reluctant journalist over one night in India's capital city, even as ‘Spotting Veron’ chronicles a long and atmospheric journey from north - east India to Delhi across the vast width of India. ‘The Dog at the Wedding’ returns to rural Assam for the tale of an orphan's connection with a stray dog, and ‘A House in Laban’ examines the longings of a young man who is an exile from the hill town he grew up in. ‘Caught Somewhere in Time’ stays on in Shillong, with a now middle aged and married Robert and is a leisurely look at ordinary lives lived in forgotten places. ‘London’, which rounds off the collection, is on the other hand a meditation on the changing nature of our world and how old connections can be found in new beginnings.
