Meet and Greet with Varsha Seshan

December 8, 11:30 am - 12:30 pm

Free

I’m doing an event based on my book Fishbowl at Kahaani Box, Bengaluru!

I did a Meet and Greet session with my book Dhara’s Revolution last year; I’m happy to be going back to this library I love! 

Date: 08 December 2024

Time: 11:30 am to 12:30 pm

Age-group: 10+

Venue: Hybrid! Join us online or in-person at Kahaani Box, Akshayanagar
2nd Floor, BNR Tower, above Domino’s, Begur Koppa Main Road, Begur, Bengaluru

This is a free event, open to all who would like to come along!

How to register: Limited seats available. Sign up here

What you can expect: A hybrid session on all things poetry!

Fishbowl, a middle-grade novel in verse, touches upon themes of mental health, friendship and family. Dive into poetry and discover how minimal text might just be the best way to tackle big themes.

Event Details

Book Discussion

What is free verse? What is a verse novel and what makes it different from prose? There are only a handful of Indian verse novels, making the exploration of this genre an exciting new experience.

Poetic Forms

A verse novel is a great way to explore poetry. From concrete poetry to free verse, let’s explore the ways in which poems are written. We will also explore the use of metaphors, repetition and more.

Writing Poetry

One of the most enjoyable forms of poetry is free verse. What makes free verse different from prose? How can we write it, paying attention to the poetic rather than the prosaic?

Join us for a little poetry writing, a little poetry reading followed by a book-signing. Copies of my books will be available for purchase!
