Set in the teeming city of contemporary Bombay, this comic tale begins with a young man in search of his missing arm. Each person he meets offers him a clue: a woman who sells rainbows; a coffin maker who builds tiny caskets; a giant who lives underwater - all lead him to Baba Rakhu, the master of the underworld and the only one who can reveal the meaning of his predicament." "Anosh Irani has crafted a story that is as much about loss as it is about the presence of faith in a world that can be as cruel as it can be forgiving."--BOOK JACKET. | ||
