"Ten on Ten is a collection of short stories from different countries and cultures.... Amitava Chaudhuri has managed to capture the social and cultural nuances of each of these countries in which the tales are set. Sensitively portrayed and exquisitely written...it makes the reader want for more. A must read especially in current times...where an attitude of gratitude is a must."
