‘Dangerlok, she says, all dangerlok. It’s a word she’s made up and covers all occasions. Dangerous people, tiresome people, people she doesn’t like. Dangerlok.’
Rina Ferreira, middle-aged, single, lecturer of English, tentative poet and the owner of a flat in Queen’s Diamonds building, will go nowhere else in the world except for the squalid corner of Bombay she inhabits. Daily she comes across some dangerlok—and with her cigarettes and mug of jungli tea she observes everything around her and dashes off letters brimming with the details of her life to David, an old flame now in America.
Funny, irreverent and sad Dangerlok is the story of an urban life, with all its absurdities, loneliness and, of course, danger. ISBN - 9780143065074
