Five years ago I wrote this Book Review for Suketu Mehta's Maximum City, while my opinion for the Book has not changed, my love for Mumbai has only increased, manifold.. !
"Words have a way of betraying the author, revealing his inner fabric of thoughts, the facade of education notwithstanding. None can escape the battle, its only a matter of time and grace. Suketu has laid himself bare, and it amuses and saddens me with every observation and every phrase - evoking a myriad mix of vapours, while i pretend not to sneeze.
However may i judge the book, the city remains the winner. I adore Mumbai."
Been almost 4 months now.. Miss you Mumbai.. !
