English, August: An Indian Story

by Upamanyu Chatterjee

Just published for the first time in the United States, English, August is regarded as the Indian version of The Catcher in the Rye. This story of the slacker Agastya Sen has a wild humor and lyricism all its own. Chatterjee charmed us in person this past April when he read from this novel at a delightful Harvard Book Store event.
