For readers across the world focused on India, Gay Bombay will serve as a memorable journey through various transitions in urban India. This special anniversary edition includes chapters from renowned academicians working in the gender and queer studies space, such as Ulka Anjaria of Brandeis University, Kareem Khubchandani of Tufts University and Dhiren Borisa of O.
