In this debut collection, Puloma Ghosh spins tales of creatures and gore to explore grief, sexuality and bodily autonomy. Embracing the bizarre and absurd, Mouth stretches reality to reach for truth. Desiccation" follows a teen figure skater with necrophiliac fantasies who is convinced the other Indian girl at the rink is a vampire. When a woman returns to Kolkata in The Fig Tree, she cant tell if she is haunted by her dead mother or a shakchunni or both. Nip bottles up the consuming and addictive nature of infatuation, while Natalya is a hair-raising autopsy of an ex-lover. In Persimmons, a girl comes to terms with her own community sacrifice. Full of fangs and talons, Mouth lays bare the otherwise awkward and unmentionable with a singular sharpness. Through surreal and captivating prose, Puloma Ghosh delves into otherworldly spaces to reimagine ordinary struggles of isolation, longing and the aching desires of our flesh.
