English, August: An Indian Story by Upamanyu Chatterjee

5.0

Incredibly raw and viciously funny account of the tedium of life in the officialdom in a small town for a young and 'progressive' man entering the civil services in a world quite afar from his past life. A wonderful glimpse at the post-Raj pre-'modern' India through the looking Glass of a then-city slicker.
