Gunga Din Lite & Other Delights (Of Lust and Comedy)
by Maninder Chana
A collection of 13 short stories by Maninder Chana.
FROM THE BACK COVER:
Gandhi and Bette Davis have an illicit affair; a high school boy battles with his English professor over a palindrome contest; a Turkish writer invents beat poetry and the modern day poetry scam; answers to the age old question of why psychics never win the lottery; a lost essay by Hemingway on women writers; the hairy details of what happens when a adult film director tries to go legit; Gunga Din helps Rudyard Kipling write the Jungle Book, while saving the British Raj: just some of the wild, sexy and uniquely irreverent tales spun in award-winning writer and filmmaker Maninder Chana's short story collection.

Book Details
First Sentence
"Every tale should have a moral, make the reader think. That's what the best and the worst writing schools teach you. They never teach you to find your own voice. Instead, they shove Shakespeare down your gullet and tell you you'll never write as good as him. Aye, there's the rub (that makes morons of English professors)."
