“I am a Bureaucrat by profession, poet at heart and a novelist by passion. Started with proses in school and eventually took up poetry seriously and continued with it alongwith my preparations for the prestigious civil services exam. I penned my first novel in 2015 which got published in 2016. Thereafter my second novel was published in 2018. I published a poetry book in 2020. Inspired by the works of great authors & philosophers like Leo Tolstoy, Paulo Coelho and Albert Camus, classical literature, mythology and philosophy find their way intrinsically into my thoughts & writing. Life, is my muse..."

Books by Mukul Kumar
My first publication was 'The Irrepressible Echos' which I wrote in Poetic-Prose style on themes of Life, Social issues, Nationalism, Love etc. The first novel 'As Boys Become Men' was a coming of age novel where the struggles of preparing & aiming for India's most prestigious exam - Indian Civil Services was depicted very interestingly and explored fun, friendship, freedom and romance in college years. My second novel 'Seduction by Truth' is about marriage, relationships & desire and resolving tricky situations of choosing desire over dharma and following one's intellect to find out truths of life.
