Book Summary
Multiple City is a vivid, portable portrait of Bangalore—a city whose history and future pulse in one dynamic urban story. This literary anthology blends essays, stories, poems, and postcards to illuminate the culture, landscapes, and people that give the city its character. Perfect for readers curious about Indian cities, literature lovers, students of urban history, and travelers at heart, the book carries a warm, inspiring tone that feels like a shared conversation about place.
The book is written as a living collage of voices, and in Multiple City the city’s story unfolds through essays, fiction, and memoir from writers like U.R. Ananthamurthy, Shashi Deshpande, Anita Nair, Ramachandra Guha, and Rajmohan Gandhi. Each piece illuminates different facets of Bangalore—from its Kannada roots to its modern tech heartbeat—creating a rich, textured portrait.
Across folk ballads, modern blogs, intimate reminiscences, and historical postcards, Multiple City moves through time and trend to reveal how gardens, lakes, universities, and subcultures shape a cosmopolitan metropolis. The collection is accessible, musical in places, and thoughtful throughout, inviting readers to see how a city negotiates tradition with innovation and how memory keeps the present vivid.
After finishing Multiple City, readers come away with a richer sense of place and a renewed curiosity about how cities grow, change, and connect people across cultures. The collection leaves you feeling inspired, thoughtful, and empowered to view your own city—wherever you are—with new wonder and appreciation for its ongoing story.
