Writing

I am a writer and book critic based in Ontario, Canada. My literary criticism appears in Bookslut,  rabble.ca,  The Missouri Review, World Literature Today, and several other journals. I write a regular fiction review column for the Hong Kong-based Asian Review of Books, and review books for Eclectica Magazine and for Montreal Serai Magazine. My other writing has appeared in The Smithsonian Magazine and in the Christian Science Monitor, and one of my essays is in an American undergraduate college text. 

Please see the left sidebar for a  partial list of places where my work appears.

Education and Work Experience

I hold an MBA from IIM Ahmedabad, India, and a Liberal Arts degree from Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, USA. After spending several years in the corporate world, I now write full-time. I lived in India, the United States, and Britain before moving to Canada a few years ago. 

Etc.

My name Niranjana means “free from falsehood” in Sanskrit.  My friends call me Niru or Nina.
