INDIAN SPORTS WRITING

  • Sports Literature – when done well fills the gaps between watching sport and the greatest writing
  • Our endeavor is to build a fan base for the best sports books ever written
  • Books that break new publishing ground
  • Writing that is sensitive, observant, witty, lacerating and meticulously researched
  • Telling portraits, absorbing narratives, painstaking reportage, compelling biographies
  • Indian sport now has an amazing catalogue of characters that combine perseverance with passion and represent the good guys fighting for the soul of a game
  • It is this creativity combined with the explosion in sports coverage that promises to make this a very exciting space.

As sport increases its footprint in India, so do the number of stories with more and more writers willing to go that extra mile to create that book. Becoming an author is a huge achievement in itself. Ekamra Sports Literature Festival understands the work that goes into the creation of a book, both from the authors’ end and from the publisher, thus the creation of the Ekamra Sports Book Awards. The objective of these awards is to reward homegrown talent and become a platform of recognition for exceptional sports writing. The awards celebrate the work of the authors who have shared their experience and expertise in published book form. Assessing factors include thought-provoking content, quality of writing, structure and originality.
