A mysterious letter arrives at the doorstep of an aging writer and swiftly begins to permeate everything he sees and touches. When he sets out on a journey to excavate the truthโ€”and its alibisโ€” his confrontation leads him deep into the human psyche and the turbulent ways of the civilised. Playing with the notions of โ€˜shadowlandโ€™ and โ€˜heartlandโ€™, the stories of the narrator and his compatriots (nursing their own agendas) are cross-stitched with their anxious traversing of inner and outer worlds, interrogating the role of the reader and the writer and the degree of participation (or passivity) allowed to them. A deeply psychological tale of binaries, Dekaโ€™s โ€˜unfinishedโ€™ novel refuses the promise of easy answers. Yatra leaves one with the thought that perhaps our travels never really endโ€”when one journey ends we find ourselves at the beginning of another.
