Crasta writes an intimate and affectionate essay about her and her society.The book also contains the voices and interviews of Mangalorean characters such as Dennis Britto, Malcolm Noronha, Father Claude, an unnamed and spirited Bunt woman, Reuben Nazareth, and others.This book is also available in print.

"The police ...wanted to have fun with the girls " says one of the interviewees in this earthy, talky, colloquial description of the texture of South Indian life in Mangalore, one that is rich in characters--a book of fiction and nonfiction unlike anything else written about the town of Mangalore (unless it is the author's other book, the widely published novel "The Revised Kama Sutra.") Despite its satirical and unsparing examination of the town and its people, the writer harbors a deep love and fascination for the city and the community he grew up in.Why should this book matter? Because Mangalore is a microcosm of the colonial world, and of small ethnic groups that are barely managing to survive globalization and being overrun by majority cultures.Richard Crasta, the author of the bestselling novel The Revised Kama Sutra, knew the local writer, musician, and playwright Louella Lobo Prabhu over a period of more than thirty years, and met her five days before her death. Crasta writes an intimate and affectionate essay about her and her society. The book also contains the voices and interviews of Mangalorean characters such as Dennis Britto, Malcolm Noronha, Father Claude, an unnamed and spirited Bunt woman, Reuben Nazareth, and others.

Lorelle D. Semley explores the historical and political meanings of motherhood in West Africa and beyond, showing that the roles of women were far more complicated than previously thought. While in Kétu, Bénin, Semley discovered that women were treasurers, advisors, ritual specialists, and colonial agents in addition to their more familiar roles as queens, wives, and sisters. These women with special influence made it difficult for the French and others to enforce an ideal of subordinate women. As she traces how women gained prominence, Semley makes clear why powerful mother figures still exist in the symbols and rituals of everyday practices.
