Anumita considers herself a poet, who loves weaving fantastical stories with a whiff of crude reality. Therefore, she writes poetry in prose and prose in poetry. When she isn’t writing, she is reading, which means she does nothing besides reading or writing. She has graduated from Hansraj College, Delhi University, and done a Masters in History from Jawaharlal Nehru University. She also holds a diploma in Journalism and Communication but she’d rather not communicate with anyone if her books can do the talking. She is the author of two English novels; The Curse of Yesterday and Some Very Dignified Disclosures, and a recently published Hindi story-collection by Bharatiya Jnanpith- Kuch Aapbiti Kuch Jagbiti.
