Operation Monsoon by Shona Ramaya [in AsianWeek]
A striking, original collection of multi-layered short stories about life caught between the old and modern, between expectations and hopes, between dreams and reality. The opening story, “Gopal’s Kitchen,” is especially poignant about a man who sells his kidney – and eventually loses his life – to ensure the future of his not-quite sisters.
