“ Difficult child 'Sauptik: Blood and Flowers' is now a one-year-old. I gave you my unbroken attention when I could've been outside playing. I gave you my best fertile years. I gaped into the void of crazy; came back quaking but did not fall in. I saw a wild, naked, bearded man when I looked at you; a face more fidel to my own than any other. (Kari does not come close) :) “

Soma Das. "Visual Artist And Author Amruta Patil Breaks New Ground With Her Graphic Retelling Of The Mahabharata." https://www.hindustantimes.com/. N. p., 2016. Web. 28 Apr. 2018.
The Hindustan Times online article describes Patils approach to different structures as an author and as a writer. Patil explains why she spends half her time in India and the other half in France, which offers her inspiration as well as peace of mind. The article also refers to how different her first and (for the time being) last book differ from each other: Kari exploring the themes of sexual identity and mental health and Sauptik on the other hand takes a stand against the patriarchal narrative of the Mahabharata Purana.

Kothari, Shamini. "Boundaries And Their Transgression: A Queer Reading Of Amruta Patil. Graphic Novel Kari." Academia.edu. N. p., 2018. Web. 26 Mar. 2018.
An article written as a review of Amruta Patil’s book Kari, exploring the queer themes of the work. Kari is Patil´s first published work and as the author herself says, it is autobiographical to a certain extent. Apart from the theme of gender and sexual indetity, this work discusses also the topic of mental health, as the plot starts of with the main character and her best friend trying to commit suicide. Patil herself is empowered to express and perhaps even more importantly openly explore her gender and sexual identity.
