The Hero’s Walk by Anita Rau Badami is a book that explores the troubled life of Sripathi Rao, an ordinary, middle-aged family man and advertising copywriter. It is a nice book by the author and is set in the sweltering streets of Toturpuram, a small city on the Bay of Bengal. I liked most part of the book but I must admit to the fact that the book is well written and is quite engaging. I am sure many readers will like this book by the author.
