Summary:
In these eleven stories, Rohinton Mistry opens our eyes and our hearts to the rich, complex patterns of life inside Firozasha Baag, an apartment building in Bombay. Here are Jaakaylee, the ghost-seer, and Najamai, the only owner of a refrigerator in Firozsha Baag: Rustomji the Curmedgeon and Kersi, the young boy whose life threads through the book and who narrates the final story as an adult in Toronto.
