Two Parsi authors (a fading breed in more ways than one!) in a lively discussion about their unique connection with the Pune and Mumbai of their childhoods and the form of writing it engendered. Though one mostly portrays known individuals with their eccentricities and foibles and the other often focuses on the city's underbelly, Farrukh Dhondy and Murzban Shroff distill the essence of life in these two similar yet distinct cities in their books, which are also reflective of the eternal tension between truth and fiction - which is really more strange?
