PROMOTION
It all begins with the bumpy Jonga
ride in the woods—his childhood
illegal poaching expedition under the
patronage of a band of idle cops, to
bring in a full partridge and half-a-
blackbuck to conjure up the dinner
for his father's boss. That day, eight-
year-old Kartikeya Kukreja solemnly
swears that one day he too would be
revered as 'IAS'.
Kartikeya eventually discovers
the secret of his father's fawning
subordinates' wriggling their way
up the pyramid. When it is his
turn, Kartikeya himself experiences
a similar hilarious predicament.
Idiotically, he sees time rush by
through a lifetime spent in inanities,
and all but feels like the redundant
antique table that moves out with him
on his every transfer!
The web of Revati's elusive dreams
tantalises him, and his wife and
children bring him back to the real
world. Will he juggle the two well, or
lose himself in it forever?
Pyramid of Virgin Dreams
is a
refershingly original rendition of
the slippery life in the bureacracy.
The book is spunky and replete with
comical imageries drawn from a
farcical, albeit hopeful India.
