THE BODY WAS THE ONLY TRUTH SHE KNEW. IT WAS THE BODY ALONE THAT WAS LEFT, EVEN AS SHE WENT BEYOND THE BODY. JOURNEYS FORM THE LEITMOTIF OF THESE ASTONISHING NEW STORIES BY AMBAI. SOMETIMES CULMINATING IN AN UNCONVENTIONAL LOVE AFFAIR, SOME ARE EXTRAORDINARY TALES OF LOYALTY AND INTEGRITY; OTHERS TOUCH ON THE ALMOST FANTASTIC, ABSURD ASPECT OF MUMBAI. YET OTHERS EXPLORE THE NOTION OF A WHOLESOME SELF, AND ITS TRAGIC ABSENCE AT TIMES.
The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
