Folktales of Faujpur Gaurav Bajpai

Stories are everywhere; some, we know. But most go unnoticed. While walking down a beach, visiting a hospital, searching for our favorite author in a bookstore, relaxing in a hotel or waiting for our train at a railway station. We encounter people who are either creating a story in these places or reminding us of one of our own.

These eleven urban folktales have captured the hopes, dreams, and experiences of people of an imaginary town called Faujpur.

Faujpur will speak with you through these eleven folktales and ask you about the tales from your town. This collection will bring you close to your city and might give you a different perspective to look for more interesting stories on an otherwise seemingly mundane day.
