a truly fantastic book. never read anything like it. it's about a 16 year old who has multiple afairs with people of different ages and backgrounds. what's remarkable about this book is how insightful and eye opening it is. it addresses various issues of the indian society in the 1980s that are still relevant today. topics that aren't discussed and issues that need to be spoken about, this book has everything in it. from romance to humour to making you question your own values, this book makes you feel every possible emotion. not only does it address common conundrums about one's sexuality and relationships, but it also gives people hope and creates a more open society where one can discuss their thoughts and problems freely. i truly loved this book and recommend it to anyone looking forward to read an insightful and adventurous story from 1980s delhi!!
