Eunuch Park: Fifteen Stories of Love and Destruction

Palash Krishna Mehrotra was born in Mumbai in 1975 and was educated at St Stephen’s College, Delhi, the Delhi School of Economics and Balliol College, Oxford. The editor of Recess: The Penguin Book of Schooldays, he is also a contributing editor at Rolling Stone and writes a regular column for Mail Today. Palash lives in Dehra Dun with his grandmother. He is currently working on a non-fiction book on young India, The Butterfly Generation.

Palash Krishna Mehrotra writes about prostitutes, cross dressers, murderers, drug addicts, students and stalkers, portraying their perversions and vulnerabilities with equal insight, taking us deep into the dark and seamy soul of India.

Set in the murky underbelly of big cities and small towns, slums and dotcoms, college hostels and rented rooms, Eunuch Park: Fifteen Stories of Love and Destruction is a collection like no other. Gritty, grim and depraved, these are candid vignettes of an India most of us are afraid to acknowledge.
