- Bio
- Icy Highs is the writerly alter ego of Tharun James Jimani. He is a writer, editor and professional wanderer.
Originally from Kerala, India, he spent a good part of his misguided adult life in cubicles and conferences before moving to Bombay to up his artsy cred.
He has lived in Chennai, Glasgow, Dusseldorf, London and Singapore over the last twelve years, and is- in Animal Planet parlance- a 'serial immigrant', and averse to nesting.
If you're looking for romance, ladies, you should know that Tharun enjoys long, chatty walks on the beach, pillow fights, cuddling and lifting the toilet seat before partaking in urinary action.
Tharun James Jimani's first novel 'Cough Syrup Surrealism' will be released in May 2013 by Fingerprint Publishing (Prakash Books), New Delhi.
See you all on the other side!

It has now been a little less than a month since I upped and left my Old Life, and re-joined the Fam. This is easily the longest I have spent with them since the Summer of Love & Detox, 2005, which was a recuperative stint post-rehab and probably doesn't count. In… Read full post »
