Author Shobhaa De is back with her latest work of fiction, Sethji, which comes after a span of 15 years, and is a satire on the political scenario. The timing is perfect considering the political turmoil that seems to have swept India. Sethji will be launched at the Tata Literature Live! Fest on November 2 and on November 3, the author will be part of a panel discussion on satire in sub-continental fiction. Excerpts from an interview with Shobhaa De:
