Kolkata, Feb 22 (IBNS) Kolkata's popular lifestyle store Starmark, in association with Penguin Books Ltd., hosted the launch of graphic novelist and illustrator Harsho Mohan Chattoraj’s book 'Ghosts of Kingdoms Past' here recently.

The event was held at the South City Mall outlet of Starmark in south Kolkata.

The book launch was followed by an interactive session conducted by Arthur Cardozo, a cartoonist, actor, poet and an adman.
 
Written and illustrated by Harsho Mohan Chattoraj, 'Ghosts and Kingdoms Past' clears away some of the dust and cobwebs covering Kolkata’s fascinating history.

Harsho Mohan Chattoraj is a graphic novelist and illustrator based in Kolkata.

He has also worked as a journalist, visualizer, storyboard artist, voice-over artist and promo producer, but has always been a fan of comics since his first dosage of Asterix at the wee age of five.
