This book shares the joyful (and some serious) memoirs of a happy-go-lucky village middle class boy, during the 1960s. 33 chapters, about 330 pages, with cartoon-like illustrations. It carries several funny happenings in the life of the boy aged 4 to 14.
It is totally Indian - -particularly Tamil Nadu. It carries the cultural vibes of those years. For the sake of western readers, lots of notes and additional details have been provided (some at the end of chapters, and some at the end of the book).
Several reviewers have said this book reminds them of RK Narayan's Malgudi days.
I look forward to reviews, particularly more from readers in US, UK, Canada, or Europe. I want to gage how a totally different cultural environment and time covered in this book is attractive for them.
