Four participants of an international conference on "The Art of Story-Telling"- three young persons and one not so young - prefer to remain in each other's company, decide to overstay and spend three days together in a beachside hotel in Goa before leaving for their respective home towns. While in Goa, they tell stories of their own invention, each of them telling a story every day, thereby recreating a backdrop immortalized by the 14th century writer Giovanni Boccaccio in The Decameron. Each of our group of four tells three stories in the course of three days.Some of the stories are realistic; some are magical; some are serious and comic at the same time; some modern fables have animals as characters and some of them even make sense in a curious sort of way. One thing, however, is common about these twelve stories: they celebrate life's diversities.

This book offers a unique introduction to the study of shells and molluscs for all those who take pleasure in shells, the treasure of the sea. However, unlike other shell albums, compendiums or guides, the central focus of this book is on shells and not molluscs. Therefore, in addition to the classification and identification of shells, the book also addresses aspects including the shell art and shell craft of Goa, the importance of shells, and literary works related to shells and their writers. The book also describes various shell habitats of Goa. The primary objective of this book is to introduce readers to the concept of shell heritage and to spark curiosity and scientific interest, not just among conchologists but also local and visiting beachgoers. Accordingly, it primarily uses straightforward, non-technical language. The book will also appeal to those readers without any previous knowledge of the subject, helping them to understand and appreciate the shells that they collect from the seashores of Goa.

Horrors of the Sea captures maritime myths and widely-believed legends perfectly aged over centuries, though some are contemporary. Set against the backdrop of tranquil coastal India, the book consists of 15 eerie and unconventional tales that explore the dark world of sea witches, unknown entities lurking in the dark, the doll-faced mermaid, and monsters encountered when driving in the twilight. Some stories explore human curiosity about the mystical elements and their fatal or fateful interactions. Others revolve around how human emotions often fall prey to evil entities and their frightening outcomes. Belonging to a comparatively unexplored genre and marinated with the author's own experiences, creativity, and imagination, the stories have a distinctive touch. These tales aim at infotainment, a great way to satiate the appetite for horror while preserving our folklore.
