Mistry's 1991 Booker Prize contender about a Bombay man trying to keep violence of Indira Ghandi-era politics from sweeping away his domestic happiness.
This was a beautifully written book highlighting journeys both physical and emotional. I liked the interactions between Gustad and his friends and family, as even when things were rough, I knew that Gustad cared. I also liked the ways political and religious news affected Gustad and his neighbors.
