The book has stories by many great Indian writers, from Salman Rushdie and Vikram Chandra to Bibhutibhushan Bandhopadhyay and Phanishwarnath Renu. The introduction to the book can be found here, and an interview about how it was put together here.
At the launch I'll give a short talk – highly opaque, theoretical, jargon-laden, and allusive – called "The Pleasures of Indian Literature". Please pre-tune your ears to the polysyllabic range.
You might also like to come to a lecture I'm giving on Saturday the 19th at the Alliance Francaise called "Ten Ways You Can Change Your Life By Reading Novels". All the details are here.
And here is an old post, "Arzee the Dwarf in Delhi, and in love with Delhi".
