Love, Stars, And All ThatBy the author of Storytellers, Saints, and Scoundrels, Love, Stars, and All That is Kirin Narayan's unforgettable novel. For Gita, a shy Indian graduate student at Berkeley, life is a complex whirl of new friends, culture shock, creative survival on a graduate stipend, and, of course, romance. Gita's beloved Aunty has consulted her astronumerologist and, according to the stars, Gita is soon destined to meet her jori--or, as they say in America, Mr. Right. |
