My Jiffies – Narration of Moments, Unadulterated and Unpackaged

A refreshing change from the ordinary. The simplicity of the tales lingers long in the mind of the reader – The Hindustan times.

My jiffies is a unique compilation of bite-sized stories and poems. It captures the irony and amusement of the journey called life. The book navigates through seven different moods narrating diverse emotions and situations, observed or experienced by the author. It’s a string of jiffies reciting tacit sentiments or messages turned upside down in everyday life, across eras and cultures. Wading from modern day to mythical, romance to pathos, satire to witty humour, it never stops to surprise the reader with every turn of the page. One never knows what is held next.

Reader Reviews

Have you ever read something so good that you feel the need to keep it aside for a while and think about it for some time? No? Then you should definitely read this book. I am still wondering, is it over? I guess not. I will need some time to finish this in my head

Avinash Tiwari

A collection of short stories that are bite-sized, but they are still deep and meaningful. They invoke a thought process, and, in many cases, it will make you reminisce. I would really love to read more from the author

Anish Kohli

Every bite on whichever page you turn will satiate the most demanding reader, but in the end, it will be the only important thing, the same for everyone, that life should be savoured bit by bit, just like the narratives and the poems written to perfection and served with love

Kalyan Panja

It is a collection where a reader has a glimpse of the writer’s beautiful imagination. The novel is not a traditional short story collection. I am surprised to find that out and really enjoyed this new form of collecting one’s writings

Aman Mittal
