The Turning Page: Hilarious Tales of a Messy Nomad
"Travel tales that will take you down the memory lane, laughing all the way. This book is about goof-ups, people, and beautiful places in India."- Hindustan Chronicles.
"Fully appreciates the beauty in the uncertainties of their journeys."- Inshorts
Lost in her Nest, Found in the Cosmos
When you leave behind a ‘dream life', things are bound to go seriously wrong. When Praajakta decided to turn her life around completely, she boarded a plane right away to whichever state summoned her. She let life happen without a prescribed manual for a while, and... How did it unfold!
16 Stories from the Mystic Townlets of India…
The Turning Page is a collection of humour stories based on the experiences of the author as she travels through the remote hamlets of India, hops onto mountains, or twirls onto the beach sand, teaches rural children and instead gets schooled herself, works from posh cafes one day and from spooky caves on another, wakes up to the alarm of sparrows, cows, and goats, or spends the night counting stars.
These travel tales are weaved with many flashbacks and fun peeks into the rural India of the seventies, a typical household of the nineties, and the brain of a messy, nomadic girl who refuses to fit into any of society’s boxes.

They say its easy to make your audience cry, but way more difficult to make them laugh. As a debutant you did an excellent job in narrating these 16 stories @praajakta_
Not even once I was bored of reading any event. And those small drawings in between so simple and beautiful and well placed.
Loved every bit of it. Light read - read, relax and enjoy.
