Indra Das

About the Author

Indra Das is an acclaimed author whose evocative storytelling blends the mythical with the visceral, drawing readers into worlds where the boundaries between human and beast blur. Born in Kalimantan, Indonesia, and raised across continents, Das infuses his narratives with a profound sense of cultural displacement and primal longing. His debut novel, The Devourers, a haunting tale of shape-shifting immortals and forbidden desires set against the backdrop of 17th-century Bengal, garnered international praise for its lush prose and unflinching exploration of love, violence, and identity. A former journalist and wildlife conservationist, Das now resides in Singapore, where he continues to craft fiction that resonates with the echoes of ancient folklore and modern existential dread.
