Peanuts (Slices of Life)
Peanuts are a metaphor for crunchy real-life incidents-tempting, irresistible, and sometimes unpalatable. The incidents narrated have their breeding ground in a small town, Bhopal, in Madhya Pradesh. The book is a compilation of slices of the lives of a small coterie of some government employees, and their families living lives up to the fullest; very grounded parents only aspire to inculcate good values among their kids; the growing up of middle-class children in well- knit-families-their day to day happenings in schools-colleges, with their friends and friends' parents. This bowl of peanuts is about three things-life, life, and life.
