Inhaltsangabe

About Book : The book presents a collection of eight short stories. The themes are diverse and reflect the myriad dimensions of life, and attempts to sketch the experiences of the protagonists. The stories build on the belief that while life's mysterious ways have left us all befuddled, its journey is rarely smooth or proceeds on predicted lines for many of us, often casting dark shadows on our efforts to take it in directions we favour. Sudden surprises, unexpected successes and disappointments seem to appear, like shades of grey within the black of the shadows. It is perhaps these shades that have made life exciting and worth fighting for. This collection titled as Shades in Shadows embodies the spirit of the glorious uncertainties of life.About Author : Dr. Usha Sridhar is an independent Network Science researcher and resides in Bangalore. Graduating with a PhD from the Indian Institute of Science, India, Usha spent several decades as a researcher in India and overseas and many years as an entrepreneur exploring applications intersecting economics, social networks, learning systems and analytics.Usha is passionate about poetry and short stories. She loves to observe the ebb and flow of life around her and weave them into tales and verses at times. The characters in her work hence have an earthy rootedness in a local milieu, but she often endows them a sensitive strength to defy traditional gender prototypes. Many of her works try to give voice to the travails, rising inner aspirations, unspoken fears, and simple joys of women in a diversity of settings.Her poems and short story contributions have appeared in Rate my Literature, Muse India, Spillwords and Efiction India. Her work has also appeared in several anthologies. She is the author of four books: three collections of poems titled Life Matters; Drenched in Reverie, Heightened Senses and a collection of short stories titled Women’s Corner.At a personal level, Usha loves travelling, is an avid bird watcher and an amateur photographer.
