Summers in the Past Tense

The book is fascinating, awe-inspiring, bizarre and a tad frightening served with huge dollops of humour. The author relives his childhood days in the months when it had been an annual ritual for his family to leave Bombay and travel southward to Madras and Kerala. Through the innocent eyes and a naive, guileless mind of an impressionable young boy, he has chronicled his experience that is a joy to read for both the younger and the older crowd.
