Hint: it’s pronounced like tubby without the t, like Sith with a J.

Abhijith is a new writer whose fiction has appeared in The Southern Review, Glimmer Train Stories, the Chicago Tribune, and Jaggery Lit. He was a Finalist in the Tribune’s 2019 Nelson Algren Short Story Award.

He is currently working on a debut collection of short stories and a novel!

Hinduism in America was never well-represented or analyzed in the stories Abhijith read, so he writes fiction and nonfiction to fill that gap. He also blogs for fun (newer entries on Medium) and writes op-eds.
