Hillstation: A Story of True Love, Sacrifice, Causality... and Luck - Softcover

"The story is skilfully told by Robin Mukherjee, who has squeezed every possible comedic drop from this clash of cultures tale - this is definitely one of the funniest books I have read." --The Book Reviewers

"She is an expert at contrast, opting for black and white images and detailed shading of facial expressions in a style that leans towards expressionism in the way it prioritises feeling over direct depiction. 8.8/10" --Ink

"Well written, and Mukherjee's local characters are cleverly shaped around traditional ideals and Indian culture. Some of the passages of dialogue made me smile as I could really imagine Rabindra's father in fits of frustration as he rattled off on one of his many caustic rampages." --Culture Fly

Dreaming of escape from his remote village in the Himalayan foothills, Rabindra entreats the gods to send him an English bride. When a saucy English dance troupe arrives on the run from a Bombay crime boss, Rabindra believes that his prayers have been answered. Except that they have no interest in marrying anyone. As the village begins to unravel in the presence of these scandalous foreigners, surprising secrets emerge from the depths of its past. This story is a love poem to a glorious, intriguing and sometimes frustrating culture still alive in the far corners of a great continent, but slowly fading to the onslaught of the technological age.
