Three friends in Ahmedabad open a small sports shop and stake their futures on cricket, business and each other.
Chetan Bhagat sets the story in a particular decade and a particular city, letting earthquakes, riots and market pressure press hard on the characters' plans. The narration is casual and the chapters are short, and the friendship stays at the centre even as ambition and religion pull the three in different directions.
At a glance:
• A friendship story built around a small business venture
• Cricket as both livelihood and obsession for the characters
• Gujarat in the early two-thousands as the setting
• Brisk chapters in conversational English
Suits readers of contemporary Indian fiction and anyone who enjoys stories about ambition shared between friends, available from Boipoka.
