Harper Collins Publishers India is Delighted to Announce the Recent Publication of 'People We Love' by Preeti Shenoy

PRNewswire
New Delhi [India], June 19: HarperCollins Publishers India is delighted to share the recent publication of People We Love by bestselling author Preeti Shenoy. At once tender and sharp, this collection of stories offers intimate, truthful and relatable portraits of the people we cherish, the ones we lose, and the people we become.
ABOUT THE BOOK
The people we love never truly leave our story...
In these tender yet piercing stories, Preeti Shenoy returns to some of her most beloved characters to reveal who they were before they appeared in her bestselling novels It's All in the Planets and The One You Cannot Have.
Aniket, a coder, carries the weight of a longing for Trisha that he cannot bring himself to act on. Nidhi abandons her corporate life to teach pottery, only to discover that clay is far more forgiving than the people she loves. A quiz competition sparks an unlikely romance between Aman and Shruti, one that must withstand parental disapproval and class divides. And Anjali, a journalist, is so busy chasing stories that she almost misses the one unfolding in her own life.
Set against the pulse of contemporary India, People We Love explores the tug-of-war between duty and desire, family and freedom, who we are and who we dare to be. Intimate and deeply felt, these are stories about love that stays, leaves and almost slips away ... love that quietly and irrevocably shapes the people we become.
Preeti Shenoy, author, says, "People We Love is a collection of three long stories, prequels to my bestsellers It's All in the Planets and The One You Cannot Have. If you have read those books, you already know how these characters' stories unfold. But what you don't know yet is where it all began, the loves they carried, the choices they made, and the people they were before life shaped them into who you met on those pages. Writing these prequels felt like returning to a home I hadn't realised I missed, and discovering rooms I had never been in before."
Rashmi Menon, Associate Publisher - HarperCollins India, adds, "Preeti Shenoy has an extraordinary gift for finding the heartbeat of ordinary lives. People We Love is a warm, wise and deeply humane collection of short stories that reunites readers with favourite characters from her bestselling novels It's All in the Planets and The One You Cannot Have, weaving them into fresh, deeply satisfying narratives. These characters feel like people you know, and their journeys will move, comfort and surprise you. This uplifting, thought-provoking collection reminds us why we turn to stories in the first place. We couldn't be more excited to share it with our readers."
