East into Upper East: Plain Tales from New York and New Delhi

This collection features short fiction from Ruth Prawer Jhabvala, a brilliant writer whose work is compared with that of Chekhov, James, and Austen. Written over the past 20 years, these engrossing stories are domestic tapestries, threaded with the emotional lives and complex psychologies of intense lovers, quarreling married couples, weary elders, and their restless adult children.
