Get smart about life in India: All about good books, films, travel & culture

Svara's Newsletter: Welcome Note

Welcome to Svara's Newsletter, a weekly newsletter with candid thoughts on books, films, travel and life in India.

Why subscribe?

My name is Swapna Raghu Sanand. Sounds too long? Just call me Svara, that’s fine.

I am an Indian mom who loves to tell stories. I dream a lot and love to live inside the world of books, more books and many movies.

I grew up in Tehran (Iran), Lusaka (Zambia) and Blantyre (Malawi).

If you love true stories from across the world, then you and I are going places together!

Stay up-to-date

When I write this newsletter, I put my heart's love into it before I send it out.

Inspired by Carson McCuller's words, "Writers are conscious dreamers who must imagine and imagination takes humility, love and great courage. How can you create a character without love and the struggle that goes with love?"

I share my heart's emotions here and it means so much to me that you read it enough to care.  

I'm grateful for your support - a heartfelt thank you!
