I was expecting a different kind of book....more details of life on the streets of Bombay for example. But I was surprised and enthralled by Umrigar's memoirs. This book is filled with the delightful, but humanly real, characters and situations that inhabit her books. I'm hoping she writes a sequel; I'm dying to know about the start of her life in America.
