Weight Loss is the coming of age story of a slightly overweight boy with depressingly strange sexual proclivities. The novel concentrates mainly on the latter, resulting in a fetid mix of highly disturbing descriptions of the characters' obsessions. Definitely not my cup of tea, I gave up after the first 140 pages. ( )
Ses romans [...] racontent d’un ton acide et drôle des parcours et des personnages singuliers. Upamanyu Chatterjee se défend d’être un écrivain «social», on ne trouvera pas d’Inde emblématique dans ses textes qui font la part belle aux errances et aux échecs des personnages. Weight Loss is a depressingly thin work, though perhaps not in the way the writer intended. Upamanyu Chatterjee's fourth novel adds some weight to the Indian novel in English.
