The Pink White and Blue Universe

The Pink, White and Blue Universe - and other stories is a collection of tales that record Meira Chand's own personal passage to India. Set in the colour drenched chaos of Mumbai, these stories weave together the elements of faith, sensuality, hope and pathos that pervade the many corners of life in India. Ranging from tender and poignant to darkly comic, the stories in this collection are peopled by characters cast adrift and left in states of unfamiliar bewilderment as they navigate their way through a society that is at once both humane and pitiless. India delivers to these characters moments of reckoning as they confront complexities and contradictions at the heart of themselves.
