India is home to almost three million HIV cases. But AIDS is still a disease stigmatized and shrouded in denial.

Stigma leads to discrimination against HIV positive people in hospitals, schools and even among families.

In this ground-breaking anthology, sixteen of India's well-known writers go on the road to tell the human story behind the epidemic
