A long book, (614 pages) but totally absorbing throughout. It is written in a very easy style but manages to paint a most vivid picture of life in India during the "emergency" period of the 70's. The plot is centred around four characters and all that they have to endure and the way they interact with each other. The ending is devastating! A "must read".
