A lot of deep-dive into various subjects : politics, feudalism, poetry, poverty, language, philosophy, sports, mathematics, cinema...even shoe-making.
But, curiously, "food" is absent in this deep analysis. Yes, ingredients and dishes are mentioned every now and then, but not much further.
I'm hoping this tome would span at least 2 generations with some of the younger characters growing up...but looks very unlikely.

I understand that every chapter is dedicated to a particular segment of the story. Still, I'm missing the continuity of some events and characters, specifically Saeeda Bai Firozabadi.
Sidenote:
D.V in a letter means Deo Volente, Latin for God Willing.
'gojol' is 'ghazal' in a Bengali accent. (IYKYK)

Reminds me of the book "The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store" by James McBride in terms of the whole host of characters and their respective story lines.
Not very complex, but not quite engaging either
