Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Sexy, surprising, and subversively wise, Babyji is the story of Anamika Sharma, a spirited student growing up in Delhi. At school she is an ace at quantum physics. At home she sneaks off to her parents' scooter garage to read the Kamasutra. Before long she has seduced an elegant older divorcée and the family servant, and has caught the eye of a classmate coveted by all the boys.
With the world of adulthood dancing before her, Anamika confronts questions that would test someone twice her age. Ebullient, unfettered, and introducing one of the most charming heroines in contemporary fiction, Babyji is irresistible.
Intellectural teenager Anamika Sharma, aware of the heartache she could bring to the people she loves, finds herself torn between her scholarly pursuits and her yearning for a life of pure sensation and sexual adventure.
