Lolita's delightful book is about her life from her twenties to the present - she is now in her fifties; recounting her funny escapades, from watching Amitabh Bachchan from the gent's toilet window in Wembley to facing subliminal racism and looking for work in the UK; from walking the streets of Calcutta with her boyfriend, now husband, because they were too broke to stop anywhere and chat, to seeing ridiculous movies simply because it gave them an air-conditioned place to spend time; from her utter exhaustion with her prematurely born child to her heartbreak now that he is overseas for further studies.
Her columns are hilarious but hard-hitting. Her unfiltered narration makes the book a chuckle fest. She has a self-deprecating humour rarely found in Indian authors. Her experiences are pedestrian but her observations are acute and disarmingly honest. If you have had multi-cultural experiences in the West and India and struggled to cope with the cultural confusion; if you are generally fumbling through life, making mistakes but never learning from them, you will love this book.
