Crossword Award-winning author Payal Kapadia is set to return with her latest book, 'Woebegone's Warehouse of Words,' a fantasy adventure that explores a world where words come at a price and so does the freedom to speak them.

The book, published by Hachette India, is a compelling cry for the freedom of speakers and their words. It melds fantasy and magical realism, raising urgent questions of how we think, feel, and imagine in the absence of words.

Scheduled for release on Friday, 'Woebegone's Warehouse of Words' is described as a tale of six desperate words, two fearless speakers, and one audacious quest to reclaim the truth in a world where speaking comes with a price.
