Really enjoyed this short story collection from start to finish, not a dud among them. It’s too hard to pick a favourite because each story has something different to offer: different perspectives from class, gender, wealth, poverty, religion etc. A diverse collection that shines a light on contemporary Mumbai while showing the deep roots of history.
