Suresh Prasad Mehta

Writer

Suresh Prasad Mehta writes the way a good host pours tea—attentively, generously, and always at the right moment. For twenty years he’s turned courtroom observations, train-station eavesdroppings and family folklore into stories and essays that have quietly appeared in Indian and South-Asian journals. A former copy-editor who still keeps a dog-eared dictionary by the desk, he believes the perfect sentence is a small act of kindness to the reader. When he’s not revising, he’s walking the ghats of Varanasi collecting faces, flavours and the odd proverb for the next page.
