Abhi, a Bengali boy, spends his school holidays at his uncle's home in Calcutta, trying to make sense of the often confusing world of adults around him. Heatwaves, thunderstorms, mealtimes, prayer-sessions, shopping expeditions and family visits create the shifting tectonic plates that will eventually shape the family's life. Delicate, nuanced, full of exquisite detail, 'A Strange and Sublime Address' is also a paean to the city, with nine short stories that illustrate the world of Amit Chaudhuri's imagination.
