Dimple Lala thought that growing up would give her all the answers - but instead she has more questions than ever. Her boyfriend is distant, her classmates are predictable and a blue mood has settled around the edges of everything she does.
It's time for a change and that is just what Dimple is going to get - a change of of scenery, of cultures, of mind. She thinks she's heading to Bombay for a family wedding - but really she is plunging into the unexpected, the unmapped and the uncontrollable. The land of her parents and ancestors has a lot to reveal to her - for every choice we make can crescendo into a journey, every ending can turn into a beginning and each person we meet can show us something new about ourselves.
Tanuja Desai Hidier's Born Confused gave voice to a new multicultural generation. Now, Bombay Blues explores everything this generation faces today with a heady mix of uncertainty and determination, despair and inspiration, haunting loss and revelatory love.
