At sixty, Jagan is a prosperous widower and a sweet-vendor who skillfully blends substantial profits with noble Gandhian principles. His son, Mali, is the focus of his affection, though he struggles to express it. Mali’s decision to leave school and pursue writing in America throws Jagan into further bewilderment. When Mali returns with a wife of mixed heritage and an ambitious plan for a novel-writing machine, Jagan finds himself lost. He faces a new world that challenges his deeply held beliefs about marriage and morality. The story unfolds with a tragicomic generational conflict that intensifies with each chapter. Jagan’s ultimate liberation from the constraints of paternal love arrives as surprisingly as the other unexpected turns in this delightful narrative.
