Marriages Are Made In India
Marriages are Made in India is Lakshmi Raj Sharma’s first collection of short stories of various categories but most of them are humorous. These have been published as an e-book by the American imprint Publerati.com. These stories either lead to marriage or stop short of it and therefore are either basically comic or tragic.
Sharma has focused on a number of odd, gawky characters and looked at them from the inside. The psychological nature of these stories makes them very absorbing. We visit a number of quaint places in India as tourists, visiting the Indian psyche and meeting people we would probably meet in the odd, less frequented lane of small town India. Some stories take us to the community of Anglo-Indians, people who are fascinating and unique in their ways. Another shows the psychology of women who live as wives to a single man.
The collection is unified in mood and theme and will be the source of much entertainment for readers eager to voyage to India from their e-reader..
