About the Book:
"Dozen Pebbles Washed Ashore by Life” is a perfect companion for you when you're traveling, spending that leisure weekend afternoon, on a date with yourself at a cozy café, unwinding before going to bed after a long day at work. It transports you to various places, introducing you to the essence of every location, be it in the form of people, food, or just how the sky looks in that place during a clear sunset. It is a collection of twelve fictional short stories, compact, smooth, colorful like pebbles; shaped by the ebb and flow of life. Composed by Aura Bhattacharjee, these short stories loosely draw inspirations from incidents in her life, characters she has met, places she has travelled to; with every story having some kind of intrinsic message. This is her second paper-back publication in the form of her own collection of stories, after one of her stories got published along with those of other authors in an Anthology titled Kaleidoscope, also published by StoryMirror in 2019.
