Family life / Akhil Sharma. - First Edition. - 229 pages ; 20 cm

For eight-year-old Ajay and his older brother Birju, life in Delhi during the late 1970s follows a comfortable, predictable routine: bathing on the roof, queuing for milk, playing cricket in the street. But everything changes when their father finds a job in America - a land of carpets and elevators, swimsuits and hot water on tap. Life is exciting for the two brothers as they adjust to prosperity, girls, and 24-hour TV - until one hot, sultry day when everything falls apart.
