Team Kitaab is in conversation with Neena Nehru, the author of The Revolutionaries (Speaking Tiger, 2025) to know her writing process and the journey behind this book.
Neena Nehru studied architecture in London in the 1960s, an exciting era of political, social, and cultural ferment and experimentation. She took up painting on her return to India and has held several solo exhibitions of her work in Mumbai, Delhi, and Dehradun. She has self-published an anthology of her poems, titled The Far Side of the Moon. She is a keen traveller, trekker, and a scuba-diver, and loves music, classic films, theatre…and dogs. She now lives in the verdant foothills of the Himalayas. The Revolutionaries is her first novel.
