In Siddharth Tripathi’s “The Virgins” (9788172344542), three Indian boys navigate the turbulent waters of adolescence. Pinku dreams of marrying the girl who caught him stealing, while Bhandu pines for an oblivious American tourist. Their rich friend, Guggi, leads them on a series of “sexpot” escapades that culminate in a violent school takeover and a journey into heartbreak and betrayal. This fast-paced, funny, and earthy coming-of-age story marks Tripathi’s debut.
