More about the book
The Khojas who are rigidly orthodox, presiding over acres of ill-kept sugarcane and hoards of jewellery enthusiastically guarded by old Mrs Khoja, seem to have triumphed more by default than by anything else. Only Baby Khoja, who is parcelled off into an arranged marriage with a blustering bus driver, proves an exception to this rule.
