Author Description

This books contains stories of marginalisation and poverty, retold by the author (who claims no authorship our these stories, so why the word 'retold'), over a period of 17 years. Drawing upon his experience, as a development sector researcher, these stories centre around development issues such as poverty, disability, community care, and caste-based discrimination. Aimed at both the development professionals and academics, this books aspires to offer humane perspectives to the issues as it is experienced, lived and felt by the very people who have chosen to share their stories in good faith to the narrator.
