A Mofussil Boy is a charming, deeply reflective, and sometimes opinionated collection of essays, which trace the author's life, from a small-town childhood in Nellikuppam, through some well regarded educational institutions in the country, to an action filled professional life beyond. In an unusual blend of personal memories, sharp social commentary and practical economic policy, the author explores themes of education, ambition, and the quirks of corporate life, in a rare mix of humour, humility and quiet insight. With a keen observer's eye and a storyteller's instinct, he draws from many decades of lived experience to uncover universal truths nestled in the particulars of an "ordinary" Indian life. Suppressing his own personality and keeping it well hidden, he powerfully projects his ideas and perspectives gleaned over decades of observing people, places and situations. These essays are a testament to how the goings-on in present day India gave an educated and observant Indian identify, growth and meaning. A compelling read for anyone who enjoys thoughtful, grounded storytelling rooted in real-life reflections-this is a book that will make you smile, think, and perhaps, look back at your own life a little differently.
