About the Book

Arzee the Dwarf brings you one of Indian literature's most unusual characters: the small and feisty cinema projectionist Arzee. Arzee has a dream: to become 'the king of the Noor', and in this way to overcome his smallness from the high perch of the projectionist's room on the top floor of one of Bombay's most famous cinemas. But the world that Arzee loves is falling away, and it seems that if he loses his grip on it, he will also lose his grip on himself. As we float alongside Arzee through the landscapes of city, cinema and dream, we also meet a host of memorable characters - such as the gangster Deepak, the hairdresser Monique, and Arzee's own long-suffering mother. Shot through with both laughter and sadness, Arzee the Dwarf is an intricately plotted and evergreen book.
