description: The fifteen stories in this collection are governed by a wry humour and a keen sense of irony, and reveal a fascination bordering on love for those who dare to defy middle class conventions and values. Set in countries as different as India, Trinidad, Greece, Bangladesh, the UK and the USA, these stories are about alternative sexual relationships, a new urban morality that validates a life of indulgence in the contemporary world, and the need to defy intellectual pretension. Taken together, they offer a range that is unusual for most story collections, and go on to prove the author's versatility as a writer of fiction.
