07 Apr / Babyji: A Novel by Abha Dawesar [in AsianWeek]

BabyjiCall me old, but who really wants to read about a promiscuous 16-year-old school girl who uses her so-called charm to seduce an older divorcée, her societal power to seduce her servant, and her academic prowess to seduce a fellow student? And what’s sexy about violence? This is a high school story that at book’s end, opens the door to a college sequel for even more!
