When Gopu’s baba falls ill, the visually impaired Gopu must brave the crowds, the markets, and the traffic of Calcutta to reach his grandma. He must get her to cook Baba’s favourite fish curry. Will he succeed in bringing it home? Richa Jha writes as much about Gopu’s courage as she does about the sounds and smells of a bustling  metropolis. Sumanta Dey brings Calcutta  to life and makes readers feel they are walking alongside Gopu.
