- Synopsis
- Set in Wadia Baug, a teeming section of Bombay, this novel braids together the lives of several middle-class Parsi families who gather at a wedding. Dosa Popat, embittered by an arranged marriage, becomes the neighborhood gossip. Rusi Bilimoria, disappointed by a series of failures, becomes estranged from his wife Coomi. Soli Contractor, the lovable buffoon, lives with the anguish of a failed romance. All of their stories are played out against the backdrop of Bombay's poverty and rigid class differences.
