"Surprisingly the actual accounts of politics in this book are a real snore. It's the every domestic situations in which Seth so masterfully exposes the challenges and politics of living in India at this time.

Petra X
added a status update: Petra Gets A Life (or some semblance of one for a few days anyway). Sailing down to Puerto Rico for a little hol with my son later this week.
