Query: Forget the story, enjoy the Bombay ride

This was a debut novel for the Canadian journalist, Leslie Forbes. It is a story about Rosalind who comes to Bombay for many reasons. The primary one being in response to her sister Miranda's silent cry for help. However, soon the hijras arrive, the monsoon threatens and Bollywood beckons.The book underplays the main storyline and instead architects a roller coaster ride through Mumbai. The author is so insightful about so many aspects of Indian life. Being from there I was completely able to identify with the sounds and smells evoked by her writing. Her use of allusions, at time confusing, is relevant to the overall plot. The picture she paints is so vivid that I hardly cared for the plot of the story and instead enjoyed the nuggets of information that are so casually inserted.
