About this ebook
True to its title, A Plateful of French Fries, a collection of engrossing stories both short and long, is tempting and delicious.
With a keen eye, dry humour and measured writing style, the stories bring to life the characters and situations that both town and city-bred English readers in India can easily recognise and identify with.
A treat served up hot and crisp for story lovers.
- Tara Murali, an architect with keen reading interests.
Ram Mohan’s stories offer a range of life experiences, from chance encounters in local trains to the dark underbelly of commercial espionage in the Big Apple, to extra-terrestrial visits and mystical time travel. Written in a simple, approachable manner, reading his work is a bit like having a free-wheeling conversation with a good friend over a drink on a particularly leisurely evening, with all time-bound routine and daily demands having been set aside. - Ranjitha Ashok, Author and columnist, Chennai
‘It is an eclectic collection of 'long' short stories and novellas. Almost all these stories exude positivity, intelligent hard-working individuals beat adverse odds with helpful patrons intervening at crucial junctures. Most importantly, these stories are all eminently easy reads and as in real life, the endings are often left unsaid, leaving the readers to speculate about.’
- T R Rajan, IIMA 1968 and professional management consultant thereafter
