Betwixt Twists and Turns: A Potpourri of Short Stories

Dragonflies are said to be harbingers of rain but they may be much more for one unsuspecting woman. A household dog finds a reprieve when Grandma comes to stay. A young man stops by an ATM at night and finds himself encountering robbers-and a young woman who may not be what she seems. In Betwixt Twists and Turns author Mona Mohanty presents a series of short stories born from random thoughts that popped up out of nowhere overheard bits of conversation parables of family lore and anecdotes from friends. These tales come from a variety of viewpoints-an older woman who receives an unexpected telegram a businessman who encounters what might be a ghost and various animals sharing their impressions of human life. These stories vividly capture the routine of existence-but with a surprising twist. This collection of short stories set in India features tales with unexpected outcomes from a wide range of perspectives both human and animal.
