Abhi, a Bengali boy, spends his school holidays at his uncle's home
in Calcutta, trying to make sense of the often confusing world of
adults around him. Heatwaves, thunderstorms, mealtimes,
prayer-sessions, shopping expeditions and family visits create the
shifting tectonic plates that will eventually shape the family's
life. Delicate, nuanced, full of exquisite detail, A Strange and
Sublime Address is also a paean to the city, with nine short
stories that illustrate the world of Amit Chaudhuri's imagination.
With a foreword by Colm Toibin
