Difficult Pleasures is a book of short stories by Anjum Hasan.
Contemporary stories depicting urban lives, the stories are well-crafted, though some of them were in the danger of feeling just about adequate.
Her writing style is not too flowery, at the same time not the unnecessarily crispy, cut and dry type that so many tend to admire nowadays. This is good for my taste. Some parts of it, reminded me of Anita Nair, however, Anita Nair tends to lean towards creating slightly more surreal settings - more ephemeral.
One thing is for sure, hundred percent talented.
