Naren, a jaded Wall Street consultant, is lured home to Mumbai by their promise of ' better days '. With him is Amanda, a restless New Englander eager to live her ideals through a social-impact fellowship in a slum. Meanwhile, Naren ' s brother Rohit sets out to find his ancestral heritage in the countryside, where he ends up befriending the fiery young men who drive the Hindu nationalist machine. As they each come to grips with New India, their journeys coalesce into a riveting portrait of a society on the brink of violence. Written with grace and precision, Quarterlife is a meditation on the roots of political belief in a time of crises for democracies worldwide.
