The tiffin

Narsimhan, Mahtab2014
Books, Manuscripts
Every day in the vast and vibrant city of Bombay, thousands of dabbawalla delivery-men transport hundreds of thousands of freshly prepared lunches in tiffin boxes, straight from workers' homes and into their offices. Even though the city is a maze of streets, and the tiffins carry a delivery code only dabbawallas can understand, no lunch ever gets lost. Well, almost never! When a secret note placed in a tiffin box goes astray, the consequences for a young boy are devastating.
