One building. Countless lives. Infinite stories.
Tales from Firozsha Baag by Rohinton Mistry is a deeply evocative collection of interconnected short stories that captures the essence of life in a Parsi apartment complex in 1980s Bombay. With warmth, wit, and heartbreaking precision, Mistry paints portraits of everyday people navigating identity, tradition, modernity, and hope.
Set in the fictional Firozsha Baag, each story introduces a new character—Jehangir with his writerly dreams, Nariman with his quiet longing, and Mrs. Mody with her fierce pride and secrets. Through their eyes, we experience the nuances of family expectations, cultural pride, youthful rebellion, and the passage of time that reshapes every corner of the Baag.
What makes this book a literary treasure is Mistry’s remarkable ability to find beauty in the mundane. His prose is clear yet poetic, layered with nostalgia and truth. The collection is not just a snapshot of a community, but a mirror held up to anyone who has ever felt trapped by home and yet bound to it by invisible threads of love, guilt, and belonging.
From the humorous to the heartbreaking, these stories are timeless and transportive—perfect for lovers of rich, character-driven storytelling.
