Common Yet Uncommon

In Common Yet Uncommon, Sudha Murty once again proves why she is one of India’s most cherished storytellers. This inspiring collection brings together real-life stories of ordinary people who have done extraordinary things. With her trademark simplicity and warmth, Murty captures the beauty of human resilience, kindness, and courage that often goes unnoticed in the rush of everyday life.

Each story in this book shines a light on the quiet heroes around us — the ones who inspire by example and remind us that true greatness lies not in fame or wealth, but in compassion and integrity.

Heartfelt, insightful, and deeply human, Common Yet Uncommon is a celebration of people who make the world a better place, simply by being themselves.
