  Durga in Nigeria

  "Durga in Nigeria" is a literary novel that explores displacement, intimacy, and myth-making through the story of Saanidhya Ashtankar—“Saani”—a disciplined product strategist from Pune who undergoes a quiet transformation while living in Lagos. Her near-death experience becomes the seed of a public myth, turning her into a symbol of divine revelation across India. Yet the novel resists miracle—it chooses emotional inevitability. 
  Spanning 23 chapters, the narrative begins with Anant Joshi’s move from Pune to Lagos, leaving behind his wife Roshni and son Kush. In Lagos, Anant’s bond with Saani evolves from professional collaboration to sacred companionship. Parallel threads explore Roshni’s devotional resilience, Kush’s symbolic presence, Anant’s collapse into broken heart syndrome, and Saani’s internal reckoning. The “Nine Days of Battle” mirror Navratri’s emotional duality, culminating in Saani’s unintended deification. In the final chapter, "Godwoman", her silence is reframed as scripture. 
  Thematically, the novel renders Lagos not as exotic backdrop but emotional terrain. It interrogates how trauma is commodified, how silence becomes sanctity, and how faith migrates across borders. Durga appears not in temples, but in trauma. Relationships unfold through glances, rituals, and poetry—not exposition. 
  Written in emotionally precise, restrained prose, the novel blends technical metaphors with cultural rituals to create a narrative that is both grounded and mythic. It avoids melodrama, honoring ambiguity and earned mystery. 
  "Durga in Nigeria" is not a commentary—it is a meditation on emotional truth, rooted in Marathi nuance and diaspora psychology, yet universally resonant.

  Hamburg, 1947.
  
  Adam is a young British lawyer is posted to the destroyed city to assist in the prosecution of Nazi war criminals, an exhausting, soul-destroying and demoralising task.
  
  He falls in love with a German prostitute during a time of strict anti-fraternisation rules. Rose is beautiful, educated, clever, witty … and Adam becomes increasingly obsessed with her.
  
  Then a Nazi prisoner, responsible for the cold-blooded killing of hundreds of innocents, escapes while in Adam's custody. There is only one place for the desperate man to hide: in Hamburg's forbidden Dead Zone. And Adam is even more desperate to find him, no matter what the cost.
  
  At once an adventure, an unconventional love story and an examination of individual culpability in the face of historical horrors. The novel poses uncomfortable questions about ordinary Germans and their possible collusion in the atrocities committed in the name of the Fatherland, and whether people from other nations, in the same circumstances, would have behaved differently. Those of us who look back in time can only hope we will never be similarly tested.
