First time author, Neeraj Chhibba joined us from Delhi to speak about his first book titled - 'Zero Percentile: Missed IIT Kissed Russia.' In this podcast he talks about his life in Russia as a student where the idea for the book germinated from. Like any debutant, he faced his share of hard luck in the first two years to find someone who could publish his work. He also talks about the author-Publisher relationship (Rupa in this case) and how he jostled between his day job in a software company and writing.
