Uru Stories

Uru Stories is a collection of stories from the Majority World written by, about and for those who grow up cross-culturally. Pradeep Rajendran and I are co-editors of on this project.

Uru means ‘fat boat’. The name uru comes from the shipbuilding culture of a once legendary maritime hub that connected the ancient civilizations on the Spice Routes. 

Uru also means home town, native place, or the place of one’s origin.
