Book cover for Leonard and Hungry Paul
written by the Chamber of Commerce, a group that he assumed had some relationship to the Chamber of Horrors at the wax museum, presumably displaying wax likenesses of entrepreneurs such as Richard Branson or Uncle Ben.

Parini Shroff
“Exactly, we’re a bunch of housewives. We make your food, we watch your children, we hear your business. We know your lives well enough to ruin them. So I’d be careful.”
Parini Shroff, The Bandit Queens

“Why was I so busy protecting the copper I had with you, that I destroyed the gold I had with her?”
Parini Shroff, The Bandit Queens

Parini Shroff
“Men like him would always look at her and see the things they were glad they weren't: weak, small, timid, powerless. Let them. She'd expended so much energy vying for a broken seat at an uneven table.”
Parini Shroff, The Bandit Queens

Vikram Seth
“She had dispersed. She was the garden at Prem Nivas (soon to be entered into the annual Flower Show), she was Veena's love of music, Pran's asthma, Maan's generosity, the survival of some refugees four years ago, the neem leaves that would preserve quilts stored in the great zinc trunks of Prem Nivas, the moulting feather of some pond-heron, a small unrung brass bell, the memory of decency in an indecent time, the temperament of Bhaskar's great-grandchildren. Indeed, for all the Minsisster of Revenue's impatience with her, she was his regret.

And it was right that she should continue to be so, for he should have treated her better while she lived, the poor, ignorant, grieving fool.”
Vikram Seth, A Suitable Boy

Parini Shroff
“Wasn't sanity like beauty, in the eye of the beholder?”
Parini Shroff, The Bandit Queens
