‘One of the most challenging voices in contemporary young adult literature.’—Anthony Horowitz
Who is the Other? Is it you? Is it me? Is it all of us?
Childhood and teenage years—adults insist they are the best time. They cotton wool adolescence in soft lights, ignoring the heartaches and shadows. In this collection of stories, award-winning writer Paro Anand exposes the secrets and sorrows and courage that are part of today’s life.
A girl dealing with grief; another who is witness to a horrible assault on a woman in broad daylight; a boy who pushes himself to the brink of extinction; teenagers coming to terms with their otherness. Her stories ask, how do you tell a friend that you are different from everyone else in a deep, fundamental way? How do you go back to school and face friends and teachers when your own family has betrayed you? And when you put your faith in Superman, does he deliver when the bullies come calling?
Dark yet uplifting, unflinching yet deeply positive, these stories are a searing portrayal of the minds of today’s teenagers. In Paro Anand’s the Other, we are forced to examine our actions and inactions and every reader will find a fragment of themselves in the stories. It is a book every young adult and adult must read.

Product description

Review

‘Paro is…a deft writer, sketching her stories in strong – and often bold – strokes, with sensitivity, finesse and a maturity of perception and approach which makes her books interesting even for adults, who may not be her primary target audience. In fact, I would say they are very useful readers for parents, teachers and caregivers, all of whom can get a better insight into the minds of those in their charge.’— Free Press Journal

Arundhati

A must-read for teens and adults alike.

Reviewed in India on 8 July 2020

Verified Purchase

This is a collection of poignant, real-world, no fluff included stories for young adults, that I could connect to very well. These stories tug at the very core of the human heart and bring to the fore all the feelings and untold thoughts that often lay buried deep within us. A boy who has an embarrassing health issue, a young teen, Shamoli who's raped by her maternal uncle, two dwarfed, ugly sisters who have a pretty, fair and lovely younger sister...these stories are fearless attempts to unravel the angst, odds and pain of being different. A must-read for teens and adults alike. Congratulations to both the writer and editor Paro ma'am and Sudeshna, respectively for bringing out such a bold and beautiful collection. I have lots to learn from this book as I've contemplated writing a YA book on a very bold theme myself, for a long time
