Bombay Blues
Tanuja Desai Hidier
Fiction D451bo
Dimple Lala thought that growing up would give her all the answers, but
instead she has more questions than ever. Her boyfriend is distant, her
classmates are predictable, and a blue mood has settled around the edges
of everything she does.
It’s time for a change, and a change is
just what Dimple is going to get — of scenery, of cultures, of mind.
She thinks she’s heading to Bombay for a family wedding — but really she
is plunging into the unexpected, the unmapped, and the uncontrollable.
The land of her parents and ancestors has a lot to reveal to her — for
every choice we make can crescendo into a journey, every ending can
turn into a beginning, and each person we meet can show us something new
about ourselves.
Tanuja Desai Hidier’s BORN CONFUSED gave voice
to a new multicultural generation. Now, Bombay Blues explores
everything this generation faces today, with a heady mix of uncertainty
and determination, despair and inspiration, haunting loss and revelatory
love.
