Travel Memoirs – Writing Workshop with Dilip D’Souza

"Dilip D’Souza is an award-winning writer and journalist, who writes about themes like development, nationalism, science, poverty, as well as travel and mathematics. His writing is fueled by travel, for he believes he must know and understand, first-hand, the issues he writes about. He searches for the small stories that hold larger lessons, because it’s in telling those stories that his writing is most effective. He has won several awards for his writing, including the Statesman Rural Reporting award, the Outlook / Picador nonfiction prize and the Newsweek / Daily Beast South Asia Commentary Prize. He has published four books, a monograph of essays on patriotism, and has contributed to a number of anthologies. His most recent book is ""Final Test: Exit Sachin Tendulkar"".
