Readings on The Red Fort

Readings on The Red Fort

At The Bhopal Lit Fest 2024

We Publish Too!

‘I am strongly of opinion that an author had far better not read any reviews of his books: the unfavorable ones are almost certain to make him cross and the favorable ones conceited; and neither of these results is desirable.’

Lewis Carroll, Preface, Sylvie and Bruno Concluded

While we do agree entirely with Lewis Carroll, and invite you to make up your own minds about the books we write and publish, we do not really mind reading your reviews and your responses.

We promise not to be cross or conceited, either way.

We – alias Ambi Knowledge Resources Pvt. Ltd. – are a publishing house, set up by a motley crew.
We have a decided opinion on books, more optimism than money, and some experience in writing, editing, designing and printing. You can catch some of our titles on:
