Best of the best

Abhinava Publications, Tirupati, has brought out a compilation of the nineteen best short stories authored by various writers during the year 2009.

The year saw as many as 2000 stories and as it is not possible for one to read all of them, academician-turned-litterateur Sakam Nagaraja has brought out the compilation entitled Varthamana Telugu Katha 2009, meticulously selecting the best of the best.

After Katha, a compilation being published jointly by Vasireddy Navin and Papineni Sivasankar for the last 20 years and the decade-old Katha Varshika by Madhurantakam Rajaram Trust, this is said to be the third such annual compilation in the field of Telugu literature.

The book includes short stories by veteran writers like Thummeti Raghothama Reddy, Mohammad Khadeer Babu, Vinodini, Vempalle Sharif, Attada Appala Naidu, T. Patanjali Sastry, S. Venkatrami Reddy, Swamy, Kasibhatla Venugopal, Pasupuleti Gita, Sai Brahmanandam Gorthi, Ramanajeevi, T. Karuna, Bhanu Kiran, D. Padmakar, G. Gouru Naidu, P.
