In a society that does you good to look out for answers, there is a Harnidh Kaur who doesn't hesitate to raise more questions. With two published books to her credit — The Inability of Words (Writer's Workshop India) and The Ease of Forgetting (Thought Catalog Books) — at 23, Kaur is more than what her words make of her. The poet and columnist, works full-time as a policy analyst in Mumbai, and before you figure out a rhyme in this sentence, she is almost through with her third book in collaboration with bestselling author, Durjoy Datta.

The three-part series, titled Is He the World's (Worst) Best Boyfriend? is their first venture into non-fiction and slated to release this year. The genre, according to Kaur, is immensely important as a medium of reaching out to the young audience and with the novel, she hopes to do that. "Everybody is talking at or for young people. Nobody is talking to them," she says.
