When we remember them there's a strange hum in the air, like they are back. The memory of a silly fight, a movie they disliked... We trace them back to their laugh.

What a book this has turned out to be. The plagent melody of loss. In the words of some of our best writers.
How difficult to lose loved ones! We remember them singing, arguing, being imperfect - and their belongings left behind remind us of that song, that fight, that eccentricity.

So looking forward to this
The book is getting such praise
@JaishreeMisra come to this. Add your melody to the evening
When memories are broken down into lyrics and hums. When objects left behind by those we love arrange themselves into musical notes...

Belinda RushJansen in the new exObjects book:
‘this candlestick reminds me of generators and power cuts, of tumultuous storms and horizontal rain hitting the thin bedroom window like chucked gravel. Of smoky wood fires and bedtimes looking up at inked skies pinpricked with stars’

@vikramsampath in the new exObjects book:
‘because precocious talent was seemingly noticed in her son who sang random jingles and bhajans with a clear voice, Ma went the extra mile. Somewhere on the journey she perhaps saw a consummation of her unfulfilled desire to learn music’
I seldom talk about my personal life & it's several aspects but when @shinieantony reached out to contribute a piece for this beautiful book that captures "Loss" through objects left behind, i couldn't say no. Have written a heartfelt piece on my departed mother & what void that brings in my life. For those interested, pls do read this anthology that has several other stellar contributors.

@gajrakottary in the new exObjects book:
‘Looking back, I can say that my father was a perfectionist and a minimalist. Especially when it came to his kurtas. Once, he did not get either of the exact shades of beige at his preferred sale, and so the experimentation began.’

@shinieantony in the new exObjects book:
‘grief loses its raw flamboyance and settles down into a prosaic number of finite things left behind, those articles of continuum and belonging, carrying within them words and voices, quirks and little eccentricities. Entire people’
exObjects retweeted
@Jaishreemisra in the new exObjects book:
‘hence the shock of coming across an innocuous paper bag stuffed with written declarations of love, some in card form, others in now tattered inland letters. What was I to do with this private cache that belonged firmly to another world?’

@BDevasiachan in the new exObjects book:
‘When I was young I craved the tender coconut from a nearby tree, shared in chunks among siblings. The tanginess of passionfruit never persuaded me, but that didn’t matter because its abundance was loved by neighbours, the bats and birds’

I'm bowled over by this amazing news, and seeing my little green book in such fantastic company! 🦍💚
My short story collection, Monstrous Longing, has made the @EHUShortStory shortlist. Thank you @farhanashaikh @DahliaBooks: my wonderful indie publisher who made this possible
