β¦ Synopsis
Melancholic and humorous, the stories in this collection tell tales of love, loss, loathing, cynicism and a range of other emotions set in contemporary Delhi. From a self-assured young man coming face-to-face with his dreams from years gone past inΒ Mr AlexanderΒ to the trysts of adolescent love inΒ Tara; from a hedonistic night out on the town inΒ Nitin and IΒ to the sheer helplessness of losing a best friend inΒ Karan and Maneck; we find hints and reflections of people we know and situations we meet in our life's journey towards a chance at happiness. Lyrical and tranquil, the stories in this collection revisit the life we live in the fast-paced world but forget to appreciate, and remember the joys of our everyday existence and shelved dreams.
