An entertaining and surprising ride through an India you thought you knew Sanjeev Sanyal, bestselling author of Land of the Seven Rivers, returns to enthral readers with a collection of unusual stories. Written with Sanjeev s trademark flair, the stories crackle with irreverence and wit. In The Troll , a presumptuous blogger faces his undoing when he sets out to expose an Internet phenomenon. In the title story, a young man loses his job in the financial crisis and tries to reset his life over two beers. In The Intellectuals , a foreign researcher spends some memorable hours with Kolkata s ageing intellectuals. From the vicious politics of a Mumbai housing society to the snobberies of Delhi s cocktail circuit, the stories in Life over Two Beers get under the skin of a rapidly changing India and leave you chuckling.
