When Kulbhushan Met Stockli

Anindya Roy ran the publishing house Phantomville where he created graphic novels such as The Believers and Kashmir Pending. Now he runs a publishing/film/TV entertainment company called Manic Mongol

An experiment in telling short graphic tales, which, individually and together, create a local universe
This unusual book, originating from a project financed and supported by Pro Helvetia, the Swiss Arts Council, explores hidden urban themes, opens the psychic core of cities in Switzerland and India and constructs a conversation channel between the two. Artefacts of the cities themselves give rise to the stories. The structure follows connections that are obvious, connections that are ephemeral and connections that don''t exist.
