Review: The Bandits of Bombay

The Bandits of Bombay by Satyajit Ray
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

It's okay. Nothing much to write to home about. The story wasn't great or deep and translation was plain. I'm guessing the ingenuousness of the translation was, maybe, because this work aimed at much younger audience since this is unlike the volume 'The Collected Short Stories by Satyajit Ray' which had great stories from diverse genres and each of them having a lot of depth for their length, and the translation was indeed quite competent, which I am guessing were done by the same person.

One can read it if he/she happens to be a fan of this particular sleuth, else can skip.
