Atlanta author Anju Gattani will be the guest speaker at the Atlanta Authors Speakers Series on Saturday, January 14 at 2:00 p.m. at the Roswell Library.
Anju’s debut novel Duty and Desire has been well received. Duty and Desire is a compelling novel of the glittering world of Indian mega-wealth where lust drives destruction and one woman’s struggle to control fate fuels a rage so deep that the truth burns her alive.
A fiction author and freelance journalist, Anju hopes to bridge cultures and break barriers one book at a time. She was born in India but grew up in Hong Kong. She now lives in Atlanta with her husband and two boys. Her Indian upbringing and British education were a strong influence in her writing. Anju is a featured columnist for a multicultural magazine “Khabar” with distribution in Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee and South Carolina with approximately 100,000 readership.
Anju’s fiction explores how the distinct mindsets and traditions of different cultures permanently shape people’s values, thinking and behavior patterns - for both good and evil - despite the equalizing effects of 21st century communications and travel. Anju’s creativity has the unique blend of the east and west which filters through in her passion for words and love of storytelling.
