Vikram Seth's masterpiece is, at its core, a love story: the tale of Lata's - and her mother's - attempts to find a suitable boy, through love or through exacting maternal approval. At the same time, it is the story of India, newly independent and struggling through a time of crisis as a sixth of the world's population faces its first great general election and the chance to map its own destiny.
