Indigo

The collection is simply brilliant. This is the first time ever I have read all the short stories in one book at one go.

Extremely quirky, macabre with humour. I was reminded of Roald Dahl but I like Ray's style better.

Taste of Bengal all along. Just the names of the characters evoke that sense in you.

22 stories in all. Fantastic read.

Only no women in the stories. Some three women appear as wives of the main characters and have nothing much to do. Very curious.
