Much Travelled Yarns by Joyseej Mukherjee
The author tries to trap some yarns in pages of print. True to the form of a
yarn, he has kept these tales as brief as he could - closely following the
lines of the original story. Thus, tales are born, and they are told and
retold from person to person as today’s audience becomes tomorrow’s
storyteller.
