Praise for the book
“A fluent, perspicacious, unremittingly funny parable about the demented goose that is rumoured to lay golden eggs: real estate, and, of course, its inevitable love affair with politics.”
-Amit Chaudhuri
Writer and Musician
“In one of the very first sentences of this entertaining novel, you come across a mention of the Sandakphu Trail in Sikkim. Tourist guidebooks say that there is nothing else like this trail – it offers the breathtaking experience of seeing four of the world’s tallest peaks. Yet it is also a trek where nature and culture come together. Sarojesh Mukherjee’s novel is just like that trail. It offers the breathtaking experience of coming across lofty ideals of a kind on the one hand, and tripping over the tainted nature of every character on the other.”
-Jayant Kripalani

“A big thank you to Sarojesh Mukherjee for allowing a fresh peal of laughter in these worrying times! This is a hilarious piece of writing, presented with a chatty and matter-of-fact tone with a serious sense of truthfulness around us, who are, at least, ‘politically’ helpless people.”
