Love and Longing in Bombay Reviews
"Love and Longing in Bombay stands out as a considerable accomplishment, one in which the author marries his storytelling prowess to a profound understanding of India's ageless and ever-changing society." - The New York Times.
"Each sumptuous and suspenseful tale is strikingly different from the others even as they all reflect the intricacies of Indian culture and Chandra's profound sensitivity to the vagaries of the heart and the implacability of circumstances." - Booklist.
"A brilliant work, equally effective in its radiant separate parts and as a pleasingly complex and highly original construction." - Kirkus Reviews.
"Impeccably controlled, intelligent, sensuous and sometimes grim, Chandra's timeless and timely book is remarkably life-affirming, considering the dark areas of the heart he explores." - Publishers Weekly.
