COVER STORY

JULY 2019 STORIZEN MAGAZINE | 19

I know more than one language.
Whilst I write in English, Urdu
shayars and Punjabi Sufi poets
have nourished me through my
life.


I wanted to add the stories that
have gone missing from the
history of independent India. And I
am immensely grateful that Gulzar
saab liked The Radiance of a
Thousand Suns enough to give it
his generous blurb: “To see the
manuscript of history, live and
happening ... one must read
Manreet’s novel.”


What were your goals and
intentions in this book, and how
well do you feel you achieved
them?


In your opinion, what is the most
important thing that people
DON'T know about your
subject/genre, which they need
to know?
That I write across genres? From
literary fiction to literary thrillers,
from commercial fiction to
women’s fiction... The one thing
that unites my writing is my
kickass female protagonists.
