The stories are packed with intense emotions like, love between mother and daughter, as in "Indu's Home-Coming"; undaunted spirited struggle of parents to carry their sick young kid to the doctor by ferrying the boat on river waters during a dark night, as in "Gopapura"; the turbulent thoughts of a young disabled unmarried girl oscillating between a conservative mind-set and the surge of natural feelings that emboldens her to take calculated audacious step, as in "Broken Heart"; and taking bold steps to charter an unprecedented life when Chhabi discovered that her cruel father had sold her to an unknown stranger in a village fair, as in the story of the same name "Chhabi". Whatever it is, the art of co-relating and narrating subtle, huge life-philosophy at every turn of the story is an outstanding speciality of the author. Most of the stories are told in a rural backdrop; be it the quarrel between two neighbouring housewives, as in "Discovery", or the chance killing of a rampaging monkey on an auspicious Tuesday, as in "Atonement", or the painful last couple of hours in the life of an emaciated, unwanted street dog, as in "Green Disguise"; everywhere the village life is described in its glorious best. The infinite powers of human beings, their patience and anxieties drive them to make them undefeated heroes in their lives. Amidst the pragmatic negativity and blind alleys, life is destined to take a positive turn and ultimately finds bright light at the end of the tunnel

The book deals with situations, personalities, and events following the writers return to his hometown, Calcutta (Kolkata), after a prolonged period of absence, and recounts his observations, some in retrospect, of the changes that have taken place since he left. The author is not given to mushy sentimentalism. It is, in many ways, a critique of the Bengali psyche and the demographic changes that have affected the way of life of the average citizen seen from the perspective of an individual born into privilege. Among other things, the book examines the man/woman relationship and provides interesting cameos of the writers perceptions of Indian womanhood and, in general terms, the truths that he holds dear to his heart. The book is divided into five chapters, including some amusing anecdotes.

"Readers will be captivated by this beautifully written novel about young people who must use their instincts and grit to survive. Padma shares with us an unflinching peek into the reality millions of homeless children live every day but also infuses her story with hope and bravery that will inspire readers and stay with them long after turning the final page."--Aisha Saeed, author of the New York Times Bestselling Amal Unbound Cover may vary. Four determined homeless children make a life for themselves in Padma Venkatraman's stirring middle-grade debut. Life is harsh in Chennai's teeming streets, so when runaway sisters Viji and Rukku arrive, their prospects look grim. Very quickly, eleven-year-old Viji discovers how vulnerable they are in this uncaring, dangerous world. Fortunately, the girls find shelter--and friendship--on an abandoned bridge. With two homeless boys, Muthi and Arul, the group forms a family of sorts. And while making a living scavenging the city's trash heaps is the pits, the kids find plenty to laugh about and take pride in too. After all, they are now the bosses of themselves and no longer dependent on untrustworthy adults. But when illness strikes, Viji must decide whether to risk seeking help from strangers or to keep holding on to their fragile, hard-fought freedom.
