Shubha and Sau : Desuri Days

Desuri was a sleepy village in rural Rajasthan where nothing much happened. This was the case until the arrival of Shubha and Sau a sibling duo full of adventure and mischief. Shubha was clever and witty while Sau could only be defined by one characteristic―his endless hunger. Together these two find themselves in various humourous situations often as a result of their own doing which leads to many eventful moments. Desuri however has its fair share of characters with unique personalities. Bhaba’s endless canings Bhabhiji’s innocence Bibiji’s kindness as well as loads of others add more colour and atmosphere to this rustic Rajasthani village. Through the eyes of Shubha and Sau we get a very clear picture of what life in rural Rajasthan was in the 1940s. Join these two on an adventure or rather a misadventure of a lifetime that will surely keep you thoroughly entertained.  Famous Author Mr. Ruskin Bond commented about this work that It reminds me of my own childhood which speaks a lot about this book.
