About the Author

Dr Pulak Puneet

Anesthesiologist • Author • Observer of Life

Born and brought up in Ranchi, Dr Pulak Puneet's enduring love for his hometown runs through everything he writes. Trained as an Anesthesiologist by profession, he is — unofficially — a sensitive observer, devoted father, romantic, and friend.

Keenly perceptive and interested in almost everything, he knows his limitations yet aspires to share the moments that have affected him most with readers who can relate. His upbringing has kept him grounded, and he wishes to make a difference through his writings.

He lives with his loving doctor wife and two adolescent children, drawing daily inspiration from family life and the ordinary moments that become extraordinary in retrospect.

Bridges — And Other Short Stories

Bridges is four decades of life lived and experiences shared — incidents that are some real, some unreal, and some surreal. The book uses different lenses to elevate the mundane into something worth looking at again.

Through stories revisiting his own childhood and living his children's childhood alongside them, Pulak paints a portrait of small-town India — a memorable school life, an experimenting adolescence, first love, and heartbreaks.

From medical training and its fallacies to family, vintage cars, remarkable individuals, and grief — each story weaves the fabric of an ordinary life made extraordinary through attentive observation.

With promises kept to the reader on every page, Bridges invites you to revisit the bridges you've crossed — and discover why they're all worth remembering.
