This is the story of Revant, a young man from Hyderabad who enters a college in Mumbai to study for his Masters in Business Administration (MBA). The rather curious title of this novel, the core message really, simply means that an MBA degree is not just about getting glory, a huge pay packet and dressing up in a business suit. I used to go around trying to correct the English of the people in my Indian environment, but when I came to understand that in fact 'Indian English' is a language all by itself, I gave up that annoying habit. Indians have truly made the language their own and have come up with a version of English which you'll never hear the Queen speak - but I love it all the same. This is my latest Indian read, written in the endearing style of Indian English. I enjoy reading Indian authors and try to promote them whenever I can.
