The Red Carpet, Bangalore Stories

by Lavanya Sankaran

  • LITERATURE
  • 2006
  • PAPER
  • 214 PAGES

Wry humor and a delicious grasp of the friction between generations in Bangalore are the hallmarks of Lavanya Sankaran's fresh, deeply nuanced debut collection. "A potpourri of beggars and billionaires and determinedly laid-back ways," Bangalore, India's own Silicon Valley, is a crucible for prosperity, and at the chaotic crossroads between past and present.  (IDA549, $13.00)
