Since the time i watched Pestonjee, i have been fascinated by the Parsi community. My father was of the opinion that there are only two kinds on Parsis, either they are phenominally brillant or they are totally dumb. And the only parsi i knew in my life.. the late Dr. Bharucha (my uncle's friend) , one of the most interesting person i have met in my life belonged the former catergory.
So it was this desire to know more about them that made me pick up Tales of Firozsha baag. The book contains about 10 short stories all revolving around the three apartment blocks of Firozsha baag and each with a reference to the other.
All the stories revolve around human emotions, be it lost love or someone trying to adjust to life in Canada. Each character is unique, be it Najamai or Rustomji or Nariman, but Kersi and Jehangir are the two that are most interesting.
