Mehr zum Buch

The world as they say is made up of stories, not atoms. And so it is that a million different stories exist within the walls of IIM Ahmedabad, the premiere business school of India, just waiting to be heard. From old lovers remembering their days together to bored boys sitting in class and writing pieces of fiction that take them far, far away. From students struggling to find their balance amidst all the pressures and the sky-high expectations that come with the privilege of being where they are to those who seem to just breeze through it all. From accurate dissections of dorm parties to hilarious accounts of daydreamers living in an alternate reality, this anthology of short stories, written by the students who were enrolled at IIM Ahmedabad from the year 2012 to 2015, is an honest and candid peek into the very heart of this institute, into the trials and tribulations that its inhabitants face. There are stories everywhere around us. It is just a matter of listening to them . . .
