About this ebook

THE APPLE OF HIS EYE IS HIS SON MALI, FOR WHOM HE FEELS A DEEP BUT ABSURDLY EMBARRASSED AFFECTION, WHICH APPEARS TO GO UNREQUITED. WHEN MALI COOLLY ANNOUNCES THAT HE IS ABANDONING SCHOOL TO GO TO AMERICA TO BECOME A WRITER, JAGAN`S FATHERLY FEELINGS ARE THROWN INTO STILL GREATER CONFUSION. AND WHEN, A YEAR OR TWO LATER, MALI RETURNS WITH A HALF-KOREAN, HALF-AMERICAN WIFE AND A GRANDIOSE SCHEME FOR MARKETING A NOVEL-WRITING MACHINE, JAGAN IS UTTERLY AT SEA. HE IS CONFRONTED BY THE NEW WORLD SHOCKINGLY PERSONIFIED - A WORLD WHERE HIS CHERISHED NOTIONS OF MARRIAGE AND MORALS SEEM TO COUNT FOR NOTHING. THE TRAGICOMIC CLASH OF THE GENERATIONS DEEPENS WITH EVERY CHAPTER. JAGAN`S FINAL ESCAPE FROM THE GALLING CHAINS OF PATERNAL LOVE COMES AS UNEXPECTEDLY AS EVERY OTHER TWIST IN THIS DELICIOUS STORY.

साठ वर्षांचा हलवाई जगन. गांधीजींच्या उच्च विचारांनी भारलेला. त्याच्यासाठी त्याचा मुलगा,माली म्हणजे सर्वस्व. पण माली शिक्षण सोडून अमेरिका वारी करतो आणि येताना सोबत अमेरिकन बायको घेऊन येतो. जगनच्या नैतिक-अनैतिकाच्या कल्पना आणि मालीची अतिआधुनिक विचारशैली यांच्या संघर्षातून ही नर्मविनोदी कथा आकार घेत जाते.
