About the Book
You who stand in a queue to buy rations or rail tickets, who try to board a running local train and hang precariously from the door, who tolerate your boss s snide remarks and the trials and tribulations of marital life you still manage to discuss politics with enthusiasm, to finish a game of cards, to laugh and to make others laugh ... You are a true karmachari. A collection of unforgettable short stories about ordinary people, Karmachari is a mirror held up to society. Set in the suburban Mumbai of the 1970s, yet universal, it is peopled by characters we might meet in real life. They come alive under V.P. Kale s sharp but compassionate gaze, and prod us gently towards a world of greater kindness and understanding.
