praise for *babyji*
"an impressive balance between moral inquiry and decadent pleasure" --Publishers Weekly
"Dawesar does an excellent job of capturing Anamika's rapid swings from puffed-up maturity to deflated adolescence and back again." --SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE
"What you'll love: Fervid scenes of sexual discovery and the fevered vagaries of Anamika's adolescent mind shimmer in unabashed detail." --THE WASHINGTON POST
"It's her (Dawesar's) rich language, simple yet heady descriptions and priceless characters that linger long after you've turned the last page."--TIME OUT NY
"so sharp it hurts and so funny you can't put it down."--East Bay Express
"one of the most erotic books I have ever read"--BUST
"Ultimately, in Dawesar's work, sexual freedom becomes a metaphor for other kinds of freedom: emotional, social, economic."--PLANET�
"I enjoyed Babyji immensely "--Pankaj Mishra, author
"...lithe defiant sexy tiger's roar of a book"--Ali Smith, author
"...channels a wonderful new Indian reality"--Meera Nair, author
"If Lolita had grown up in India, she might have debuted in a novel like this. Babyji is riveting, a great gift to read." �Vendela Vida, author
Dawesar is the author of two novels: Babyji (Anchor Books, February 2005) and Miniplanner (Cleis Press, November 2000). Time Out New York listed Dawesar as one of 25 People who will make their mark in 2005. One of India's leading national English language newspapers, The Hindustan Times, included Dawesar with a list of eleven other authors in its Next Big Things for 2005. In 2003, Dawesar was named the "Fun Fearless Female" of the month by Cosmopolitan India. The New York Foundation of the Arts awarded Dawesar a Fiction Fellowship in 2000. Her first novel MINIPLANNER in the voice of a gay white banker was hailed as "a coming-of-age of Indian diaspora writers." For more www.abhadawesar.com
