About the Author
Daughters of Durga was written in 2015, when Atharva Inamdar was 18 and developing what would become The Vomit Method — marathon writing sessions of 20 hours a day, 15 days straight, to finish a book. The mythology & folklore work from this period reflects a writer pushing hard to find his voice. The mythology writing draws from Indian traditions and stories that have been part of life in Pune since childhood.
