Description

An acclaimed contemporary Marathi novel, Half-Open Windows is a striking portrait of India’s urban upper middle class on an obsessive quest for riches and prestige. Set in the enticing yet treacherous city of Mumbai, it closely follows the lives of people connected to an up-and-coming firm, basking in the glory of their recent success. The book revolves around diverse characters chasing desperately for happiness and success. The central figure, however, is Mumbai—the driving force behind the aspirations and dreams, and the ethical compromises of the character. Ganesh Matkari provides rich insights into the human psyche, a proper reflection of ourselves. His compelling prose and Jerry Pinto’s pitch-perfect translation make the book a captivating read.
