Book Summary:

In this collection, Murty shares stories from her personal experiences and observations, highlighting the diverse behaviors and attitudes of people she has encountered across India. The narratives range from acts of kindness and generosity to instances of selfishness and deceit, each offering a window into the human psyche. For example, one story recounts how a tribal chief in the Sahyadri hills taught her the humility of accepting gifts, while another tells of a man who abandoned his elderly father in an old-age home, only to later claim him as his own when he passed away. These stories are told with a blend of humor and sincerity, making them both engaging and thought-provoking.
