A Crack In The Rainbow

"A very contemporary plot, skillfully woven with warp and weft of rural aspirations and urban snobbishness, embroidered with corporate world's maneuverings and advertising industry's glamour and embellished with boardroom and bedroom sagas. Shows Badri's brilliance in observing the evolution of post independence Indian society right up to the digital age. Sequence of narration keeps you glued to the book."

The plot is extremely intricate, combining pieces from different sectors of society and uniting them in a way that most would not normally assume to be the case. The interactions of the characters and the various story components illustrate how things are not always what they seem. It was a really great read - super gripping and entertaining. Check it out!"
