Description
Best selling author of English Fiction, Saikat Baksi, believes that life is a collection of short stories. Like an expressionist artist, an author of fiction too keeps painting self-portraits throughout the life. He paints self-portrait with plenty of missing alphabets. The elements of his stories are laughter, tears, silence and sorrow. Fear, greed, love and lust play hide and seek in his stories. Lives are made of all that. Right?
