Media Reviews
An exuberant comedy of the often painful meeting of Indian and Western manners * Sunday Times *
Feisty, sexy, moving, as if Merchant-Ivory swallowed The Face? New Statesman & Society ?Meer's characters are all well drawn, each deracinated in some degree and each nursing a concomitant hopelessness. The novel has wit, irony and much sadness * Boston Globe *
