Yes Ace — An Assortment of Essays Over a Cup of Chai

by Amarnath Pallath

Yes Ace is a collection of short essays by Mr. Amarnath Pallath, written in the unhurried spirit of a long conversation over a cup of chai. Each piece is drawn from his own life experiences — the people he has met, the setbacks he has weathered, the small everyday moments that quietly shape a person over decades. Ranging from family and friendship to work, faith, ageing, and the surprises of a grandchild's imagination, the essays move easily between humour and reflection. There is no lecture here, only a seasoned observer sharing what life has taught him, and inviting the reader to notice the same things in their own days. Dedicated to the three women in the author's life — his wife Usha and daughters Divya and Megna — Yes Ace is a book to keep by the armchair and return to one essay at a time.
