Book reviews dealing with  socio-political, cultural, historical and legal analysis on autobiographies, anthologies, fiction, academic books, poetry (indicatively) are all welcome.

  • We welcome original contributions that have not been published or accepted to be published elsewhere. 
  • We publish analytical and creative book reviews that engage with significant aspects of a book.
  • We encourage book reviews which are reflective and written with hitherto unexplored point(s) of view.
  • We do not publish mere summaries of books.
  • We do not necessarily review recently published books.

Book reviews should ideally be 1200-1500 words. We are willing to make an exception in case a piece demands more.

If you are looking for a book recommendation or want to discuss your book choice with our editorial team, you can write to us at  Editor@thedaak.in. Please send your book reviews to submission@thedaak.in. The deadline for the same is 15th April 2024.
