The Gold Digger and other stories Upen Dave

A lovely woman with her eye on the jewelry case. An Indian American father grappling with change. A young lady with a scar trying to rise above the hurt of the past. This entertaining collection of short stories sketches humans as both noble and flawed. These tales range from witty to wrenching to hilarious, and rarely have the ending you expect. The author, Upen Dave, weaves tales inspired by his broad life experience and flavored with a dash of O. Henry, Ernest Hemingway, and Jean-Paul Sartre. Set in the US and around the world, these stories capture the irony of life.
