Om A Room for Ruth: Collection of Short Stories & Poems

Angeline lives in Western India in the desert city of Jodhpur. She would have liked to pursue a career in journalism but settled in for a career as a full-time writer with the Jodhpur and Jaipur Polo magazines; she is currently the Associate Editor for these souvenir magazines. Having spent her formative teen years at boarding school in Mussoorie. "Growing up, I was greatly influenced by Ruskin Bond's and R.K Narayan's writing styles- simple yet touching and memorable." "The life we led on with missionary parents who served tirelessly- conditioned my brother Kim & myself to respect hard work and remain humble." But the turning point in her life, she adds with a laugh, came when she met her future husband in 1996. "Marrying the army type was never something I wanted- but his presence and our daughter's - has made all the difference!" "These stories are a part of my life's landscape, which has inspired them, greatly. From Calcutta to the Thar, the Rann, to the hills. These are people I have known, seen, touched, in some way or the other." "I hope my words are painting a picture in your mind- if yes, then I must be doing it right!"
