Autorenporträt
Parvati Sharma's debut The Dead Camel and Other Stories of Love earned her a cult following for its depictions of love and sexuality in urban India, and its 'lightness [and] lucidity'. She has also written a novella, Close to Home, and two books for children, The Story of Babur and Rattu & Poorie's Adventures in History: 1857. Her first biography, Jahangir: An Intimate Portrait of the Great Mughal (Juggernaut, 2018), was acclaimed as an "audacious, conversational history... [that] stands out", and for its "psychologically penetrating portrayal".
