He has been published by multiple reputed publishers, like Penguin India, StoryMirror, HBB, and numerous literary web portals.Arka Datta loves movies that haven’t been made from any book and reading books that haven’t been turned into movies. He is a firm believer of global warming, freedom of speech, equality among all people, and the importance of taste over nutrition (without failing to understand the cruelty of that statement). He loves his sick abs but will sacrifice them if it ever comes between them and food. He is a terrible dancer and used to be greatly self-loathing.Books by Arka Datta
