In this set of short stories, an Indian author expresses the conflicts between traditions and the modern world in a variety of situations. The viewpoint is definitely feminine.

Released on Wednesday, August 25, 2004 at Pacha Coffee Bar/Burnet in Austin, Texas USA.

Simply delightful....reminds me of how much I love short stories....I caught the book at Pacha coffeehouse on Wed. August 25, the day it was released! I wanted something to read while having my morning latte and found this gem on the bookshelf there. At first I thought someone had left their book by mistake , but I was willing to steal it when I found how engaging the first story was, and to my delight found it had been left with the intention of being taken! Thank you, Scorpionwoman!

I caught the book from a dear friend in Austin who mailed it to me after I moved. I am giving the book to a dear new friend in my new town.
