Summary:

In the late sixties, in a comfortable Calcutta neighborhood, the restless sons and daughters of the well-to-do mix with activists and characters who carry the seeds of Calcutta's legendary social unrest. Their political activity takes place in the carnival atmosphere of the city's streets and markets until a bloody political clash turns them into adults before their time.

Rana Bose sets his first novel in his native Calcutta, Houston, and Montreal. The story revolves around Rude and his diary, confiscated by the Calcutta police in 1970, but retrieved by a friend twenty years later.
