When brothers Tushar and Nakul Khurana, two Delhi schoolboys, pick up
their family?s television set at a repair shop with their friend Mansoor
Ahmed one day in 1996, disaster strikes without warning. A bomb?one of
the many ?small? bombs that go off seemingly unheralded across the
world?detonates in the Delhi marketplace, instantly claiming the lives
of the Khurana boys, to the devastation of their parents. Mansoor
survives, bearing the physical and psychological effects of the bomb.
After a brief stint at university in America, Mansoor returns to Delhi,
where his life becomes entangled with the mysterious and charismatic
Ayub, a fearless young activist whose own allegiances and beliefs are
more malleable than Mansoor could imagine. Woven among the story of the
Khuranas and the Ahmeds is the gripping tale of Shockie, a Kashmiri bomb
maker who has forsaken his own life for the independence of his
homeland. ? Karan Mahajan writes brilliantly about the effects
of terrorism on victims and perpetrators, proving himself to be one of
the most provocative and dynamic novelists of his generation.
