Other than the mystery
/detective novel which i wanted to work on, there was another topic on my mind, and in fact, it was the one i wrote on the pad you passed around. I wanted to work on the evolution of sex from a three letter word, dreaded and spoken of in hushed tones to a) a tool of transgression, as in A Gog of Small Things, and b) something which has no longer remained a domain of male writers, as in Shobha De's Starry Nights. I remember once listening to a speaker who was talking about the depiction of same sex love on stage and said that india is not just homophobic, but intensely hetero-phobic as well. I figured, i might have a chance of examining how much the heterophobia has ebbed. Do advise, if i should stick to mystery or start working on this one.
