Step back in time with ‘Poona Company’, a charming collection of nine linked stories by Farrukh Dhondy. This heartwarming and humorous book vividly captures childhood memories of growing up in a Parsi neighborhood in 1950s Poona. Meet eccentric characters like Eddie the Inventor, the gentle giant Samson, and the ambitious Chamak, all set against the backdrop of Sarbatwalla Chowk. Farrukh’s tales, from broken spectacles to schoolyard rivalries, are painted with a fond heart and a sharp eye. Praised by Salman Rushdie as ‘beautiful, full of affection and extremely funny’, ‘Poona Company’ offers a delightful and fresh glimpse into small-town India, a rare gem in Indian fiction. Perfect for readers seeking nostalgic and engaging narratives.
