“Anu Nande has done something which, so far as I know, has never been attempted before – write a series of short stories, each only 55 words long. Elegiac, joyful, nostalgic, yearning, no matter: each subject gets equal treatment, like “a brief promise of a lost fairytale”. Glimpses, fragments, miniatures, cumulatively, a portrait of a life. ” (Andy Martin, author of Reacher Said Nothing)
