Its a must read for 20-30 yr old guys

A good and breezy read, it did not disappoint me, the book was fun, sometimes I felt that there wasn't any sudden great turn or twist in the tale but still I couldn't keep the book down, and then the twists actually happen and since then it definitely will keep one hooked on until you finish the book. i am all praises for the book, and just when one finishes the book, somewhere or the other all of us want to be like Dan at some point in their life and the way the book ends was quite practical. Good Work Anish Sir, we fans await your next book.

Dan...bpo style

Another book by an Indian author, who was a banker, is good compere, loves scotch cigars - Anish Trivedi.

A first attempt, which looks an attempt to climb the band wagon of becoming a novelist.

There is nothing new about the story except BPO theme and how middle class life is about and how they make choices.

It looks as if BPO is now the flavor of the month/season.

I prefer Anish as a columnist or compere.

Good Stuff

The book was delivered well in time and in perfect condition. I have not read the entire book, but so far I am liking it for the simple fact that is mirrors the reality of the "BPO culture" so well. Anish seems to have a good grasp of the present generation and manages to portray it in a quirky and funny way. Go For It!!

Not bad at all

With a ton of wannabe Chetan Bhagats (young/urban/bpo love stories) hitting the market, each one worse than the other, this one is a breather! A unique writing style, humor and wit. Initially you may not see the point, but it gets better as you go on reading it. :)
