In Custody - Hardcover
An exquisite blend of humor and pathos, "In Custody" is a sad, bitter, funny novel full of insight into human frailty and with some truly memorable scenes of comic catastrophe. Summoning up the everyday reality of India, it sounds, its colors, its enduring conflicts, Anita Desai has written a comedy of depth, delicacy and enchantment.
