Amrita's first novel, Broken News, deals with urban dysfunction, fragile egos and fragmented personalities in broadcast media, reflecting the unforgiving, frenetic pace of 24/7 news. The Sibius Knot, her second novel, unveils a scarred landscape, tracking the devastation of adolescence and young adulthood, but is at its heart a story of love and life, of battles waged and won.
