The Gateway of India, built in the early twentieth century, served as a ceremonial entrance to the city of Bombay. Today, it remains the city's most famous landmark.
Set in 1980s Bombay, this collection of stories and a novella provides a gateway into the lives of ordinary citizens. A doctor who retires to begin a new life, a bus conductor, a police inspector, the residents in an affluent neighborhood, a schoolteacher and his students--each vignette captures the unique struggles and triumphs of life in India's commercial capital.
The special omnibus edition contains all three books in the Gateway of India series and includes a bonus story, Saturday Date.
