Soft cover. Zustand: New. Yasi, Rasa and Ta are three restless children who live modest lower-middle-class lives at the edge of town, but their imaginations gleam with threads of many colours. Bored bicycles move away from their owners in the hope of being stolen . A light bulb in a sari shop mischievously switches itself on and off . Chalk doodles squirm and squiggle when adults are in the room . Sandals lying by the door plead to be worn .
