In 330 Million Gods, ordinary lives become unforgettable. Written in lyrical, intimate prose, 330 Million Gods is a many-voiced work of fiction about the immense variety of a country too often reduced to a single story.
Across India, a schoolteacher waits for news from the Gulf; a Kathakali actor watches a green hero emerge in the mirror; a Sikh restaurant owner carries the memory of a burned Delhi kitchen; a young farmer sells part of his family’s land for the promise of Canada. A librarian at Darbar Sahib catalogs what cannot be recovered. A puppeteer gives an old king a daughter. A woman repairs solar radios in the mountains. A child maps floodwater so her family will know where to stand.
These seventy-one stories move through cities, villages, coastlines, mountains, crowded markets, homes, temples, gurdwaras, cinemas, trains, and kitchens. They are haunted, funny, tender, and sometimes devastating—stories of faith, migration, caste, labor, family, disability, gender, memory, aspiration, and survival.
