drafts - Paperback

by Jalal Alamgir (Author)

drafts is a bold, genre-blending collection that follows one searching mind across continents and years of transformation. These stories spanning Bangladesh, India, Sri Lanka, America explore adolescence, ambition, lust, guilt, and the structures of power that shape our lives.

A teenage romance turns haunting. A chaotic cinema hall reveals social order beneath disorder. A dinner table becomes a stage for political struggle. A courtroom becomes a meditation on truth and scholarship.

Blending fiction, memoir, and political reflection, drafts examines the tension between rules and morality, identity and inheritance, public systems and private longing.

Intimate, intellectual, and unafraid to question everything, drafts is for readers who enjoy literary fiction with philosophical depth and global perspective from of a free mind in motion.
