About Me
Originally from Siliguri, West Bengal, Pinakie’s journey spans classrooms, boardrooms, and cultural spaces—from teaching in Sikkim to shaping narratives in Delhi–NCR. He sees himself not as a conventional writer, but as an author of experiences. His books include Mountains to Manhattan, exploring the Tibetan refugee crisis, A Basket of Sunflowers, centred on women’s lives, and The Perfect Chaos, a corporate thriller on power and ambition. Influenced by the Himalayas, cycling, and culture, his work explores identity, emotion, and belonging.
Books
"Mountains to Manhattan" offers a fresh perspective on the historic struggle between India’s traditional allies and the modern powerhouse of China. The book provides an insightful look into the lives of Tibetan exiles and underscores the ongoing vitality and resilience of the Free Tibet movement.
Seven women across seven places come alive through intersecting stories of ambition, restraint, and resilience. The narratives examine women’s unspoken struggles—some borne in silence, others met with quiet defiance.
COMING SOON
