Notes A collection of fiction marked by wisdom and wit, The Red Carpet: Bangalore Stories showcases the talent of one of the literary world's most luminous rising stars. Linked by the city of Bangalore, India's own Silicon Valley, the characters deftly evoke the global community we inhabit today, where identity and cultural tradition are often at odds with each other. Through Lavanya Sankaran's sparkling prose, we meet spirited twentysomethings clashing with their orthodox families; impoverished students who become jet-setting entrepreneurs; a child who learns too early about injustice, then outwits her nemesis; and a memorable array of lovers, loners, gossips, and generous givers who all make the most of the rapidly shifting world around them.
