A book that will force you to rethink the idea of Love in India and the politics around it, the book contains Sixteen startling stories, many of which deal with the taboo subject of homosexual love in a country that criminalizes it, reiterating the author's faith in free speech. These stories are at once political and artistic. They are experimental in style and use a variety of literary forms, such as first-person narration, flash fiction, stories without full-stops, as well as stories in the form of newspaper interviews and screenplays. The men who people these stories are such as we see on the streets of Indian cities.
