Book Summary:

"Ravan & Eddie" is a novel by Indian author Kiran Nagarkar, first published in 1994. Set in the bustling chawls (tenement housing) of 1950s and 60s Bombay (now Mumbai), the story follows the intertwined lives of two boys:

  • Ravan: A Hindu boy born as Ram but affectionately renamed by his mother to ward off the evil eye, reflecting a playful twist on his mythological namesake.

  • Eddie: A Roman Catholic boy, whose life is marked by a series of comedic and poignant adventures alongside Ravan.

The narrative delves into their coming-of-age journey, exploring themes of identity, religion, and friendship amidst the vibrant tapestry of Bombay's chawl life. Nagarkar's storytelling is noted for its humor, irreverence, and rich cultural depiction.
