Story telling is a brilliant art and that requires patience, understanding and enormous control over emotions. GOLDEN ORCHARD is a collection of eleven human life stories that would make you smile, laugh and cry. It would also comfort you and carry you through different moods. It is the result of the author's childhood dreams and his nature of sulking in the shadow of dust and memories. A story cannot enthuse the reader unless it is shaped in the cuisine of reality. No story is completely fictional, as nobody can pen a story without personal attributes slipping in. These are beautiful stories of life.
