The latest selection of Indian fiction features diverse narratives, including Ruthvika Rao’s novel All Our Evenings. Set in 1990s Hyderabad, the story follows three teenagers whose close friendship is permanently altered by a violent incident at an abandoned property. Ten years later, the return of one character forces a confrontation with past secrets, social class dynamics, and unresolved emotions. Additionally, the list includes Manjula Padmanabhan’s work, Zone, which depicts a dystopian reality where a young woman named Meiji survives the systematic elimination of the female population. These titles represent a portion of the new literary offerings available from publishers this October, providing readers with varied thematic explorations ranging from coming-of-age dramas to speculative fiction.
