Wishing Upon A Rhyme’ is a tryst with verse. It’s a collection of 52 poems, spread over 9 themes that are diverse in context. The poems draw reference from the poetess’s own experiences, her interactions with others, and her observations of the world around her. They run the gamut from the quirky to the somber, the highs to the lows, the thoughtful to the thought-provoking. As you are taken through a roller coaster of emotions, the themes balance themselves out. Some poems express topics that need a closer look while some are already in the public eye. Some of them create angst whereas others are a reminder that all is not lost. Some espouse facts while some are a reflection of humanity. Overall, the poems can be construed as a humorous take on daily struggles, a canvas for harsh truths, a symbol of change, or a promise of better times; as you wish upon a rhyme.

These are 16 immersive, entertaining short stories about characters across caste, class, and religion in Bombay. Some of the stories have been nominated for prizes: Fundação Oriente Short Story Competition, 2015 (shortlist); Open Road Review 2016 (winner); DNA-Out of Print Contest 2017 (longlist), and DISQUIET International Literary prize, Lisbon 2019 (notable entry). * * * These stories are laced with the grit, sleaze and dynamism of Bombay. They explore the nerve centre of a great metropolis with caustic wit and uncompromising realism. From the red-light corner of Kamathipura and the race course of Mahalaxmi, from South Bombay where a perfume maker works on exotic fragrances to the throbbing epicentre of Thana and the township of Kalyan, from Bandra to Andheri, the city is brought alive through memorable characters, piquant situations and no holds barred language. With the occasional foray into Goa, the poet Rochelle Potkar makes an impressive debut in short fiction, a genre unfairly neglected by most publishers in India. --Manohar Shetty
