Gal Golpo

At first glance, the world appears harmonious — contented couples, proud parents basking in the glow of their children’s achievements, and an intricate web of seemingly sweet familial bonds: sons-in-law, daughters-in-law, , each playing their part in the grand theatre of domestic life.
 

But look closer, and a different picture begins to emerge — one of muffled sobs behind closed doors, of silent rage and long-suppressed resentments. These are not imagined tales; they are drawn from life itself, each one observed with a keen and empathetic eye by the author.
 

These are stories of the everyday — intimate, layered, and profoundly human. Tales of households that could be yours, or mine.
 

‘Gal Golpo’ by Debjani Basu Kumar consists of forty short stories crafted for discerning adult readers.
