ABOUT THE AUTHOR
New coming author, Bharati Sen, originally spent much of her childhood growing up in Myanmar and West Bengal. She completed a master’s degree in International Relations in India before moving to the United States. Much of her writing is inspired while living in the city of Kolkata, focusing on ordinary individuals and providing fascinating glimpses into the challenges of being a woman in India.
Her debut book, On the Banks of River Sarayu, is a collection of short stories detailing the lives of hidden individuals, particularly women, living in the lower strata of Indian society, and describing the emotional and raging disparities that often lead to bittersweet endings.
Bharati currently lives in Oklahoma with her husband and two sons. She is greatly involved in the Indian community and contributes to local magazines.
