Kankana Basu’s Vinegar Sunday announces the arrival of a quiet, ironic voice in the little explored genre of the Indian short story in English. Her short stories in this collection offer revealing glimpses of the Bengali residents in Halfway House, and as you progress through the stories you confirm for yourself your worst fear: normal is neurotic. Kankana Basu is a writer to watch out for.
