With an Indian mother and an American father, Sagar's insightful perspective on life in India shines through in these tales, many of which have plot twists that catch the reader off guard. Read about a fruit seller who must make a sudden moral decision, the mysterious background of a cheerful dairy shop owner, the perils of drinking and driving, and a billionaire who invites fifteen children to a mysterious party.
