This brilliantly illuminating portrait of Bombay and its people--a book as vast, diverse, and rich in experience, incident, and sensation as the city itself--is from an award-winning Indian journalist and fiction writer.

Suketu Mehta es autor de ficción y ensayos periodísticos, y ha obtenido diversos galardones por su trabajo: el premio Whiting Writers, el O. Henry y la prestigiosa beca de la New York Foundation for the Arts. Mehta publica con asiduidad en The New York Times Magazine, Granta, Harper's, la revista Time y The Village Voice. Su primera novela, Ciudad total: Bombay perdida y encontrada (Literatura Random House, 2015), quedó finalista del premio Pulitzer 2005 y se ha convertido en un clásico contemporáneo entre los libros de viaje.
