What was a boy's life like in a young and post-modern India? What were his hopes and dreams? What lessons did he learn to pass on to his kids and grandkids? Who are his heroes? Who were his foes?

It would seem Ek Jalebi is just a collection of family anecdotes, but this simple and heartfelt collection of tales will take you on a journey, through boyhood and youth, to discover the marvellous that hides in the mundane. Delightful to young and old alike, these short stories are based on the author's own experiences and memories.
